I am looking to provide a radius search that allows a member to see what other members are in a specific area surrounding them. I installed the google map api but have not been able to figure out the zip code search for the radius.

I think this is not the right place for such a question. You would be better off asking it in the ]
google maps api group. I doubt there are many (if any) members here with experience in the Google maps api. |

I do I do, well sorta to a point. It just involves the normal geoip/geocode api and coomparing the lat/lon against the stored.
Added 5 minutes later: While this is for a store locator, this is the exact basic of what you want. http://code.google.com/apis/maps/articles/phpsqlsearch.html It has everything you need to do what you want. |

Thank you this helped me out.
Everything is setup but my only issue is I need to place another insert into sql command to push the location data from the user profile to a second table "markers" to populate the radius search location database. Is there an easier way? |

Why not just query the users Table?

I tried this by modifying the usermap plugin but I am getting no search results. Your idea sounds good but shouldnt I first use the geocoder in the usermap plugin? when I do that it stores that lat log in its table with adress and name. The users table only has adress which need to be converted before I run the actualy query.
