Ok, I tried what you said....Here's the code: $res = mysql_query( "SELECT ZG_LATITUDE, ZG_LONGITUDE FROM zip_code where zg_zipcode = '$zip'"); List($Lat,$Lon) = mysql_fetch_row($res); $Lat1 = ($Lat-2); $Lat2= ($Lat+2); $Lon1= ($Lon-2); $Lon2= ($Lon+2); //echo ($Lat1); //echo ($Lat2); //echo ($Lon1); //echo ($Lon2); $zipcode = mysql_query( "SELECT * FROM zip_code where ZG_LATITUDE >= $Lat1 and ZG_LATITUDE <= $Lat2 and ZG_LONGITUDE >= $Lon1 and ZG_LONGITUDE <= $Lon2"); if (!$zipcode) { echo("<P>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</P>"); exit(); } while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($zipcode) ) { echo("<b>City: </b>" . $row["ZG_CITY"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>State: </b>" . $row["ZG_STATE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Zip Code: </b>" . $row["ZG_ZIPCODE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Area Code: </b>" . $row["ZG_AREACODE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>County FIPS: </b>" . $row["ZG_COUNTY_FIPS"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>County Name: </b>" . $row["ZG_COUNTY_NAME"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Time Zone: </b>" . $row["ZG_TIME_ZONE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Day Light Savings?: </b>" . $row["ZG_DST"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Latitude: </b>" . $row["ZG_LATITUDE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Longitude: </b>" . $row["ZG_LONGITUDE"]. "<P>"); } I get no results with this still, it acutally doesn't even go to the this page. When I uncomment out: //echo ($Lat1); //echo ($Lat2); //echo ($Lon1); //echo ($Lon2); and comment out everything below this, I get the expected results for $Lat1,$Lat2,$Lon1, and $Lon2. So I have to believe my issue is below those lines, can anyone see what I have that is incorrect here? -----Original Message----- From: Henrik Hornemann [mailto:HEH@xxxxxxx] Sent: Monday, April 18, 2005 2:44 AM To: php-db@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: SV: PHP and MySql question Hi, Your problem is that your variables $Lat1,$Lat2,$Lon1,$Lon2 all reffer to resultsets and not the Latitudes or Longitudes. Try something like this: $res = mysql_query( "SELECT ZG_LATITUDE, ZG-LONGITUDE FROM zip_code where zg_zipcode = '$zip'"); List($Lat,$Lon) = mysql_fetch_row($res); $Lat1=Lat-2; $Lat2=Lat+2; $Lon1=Lon-2; $Lon2=Lat+2; Now you can use the values in your final query.

I am having an issue and am not sure if this is the corret way to do this: Here is my code, I'll start there: <?php $Lat1 = mysql_query( "SELECT (ZG_LATITUDE-2) FROM zip_code where zg_zipcode = '$zip'"); if (!$Lat1) { echo("<P>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</P>"); exit(); } $Lat2 = mysql_query( "SELECT (ZG_LATITUDE+2) FROM zip_code where zg_zipcode = '$zip'"); if (!$Lat2) { echo("<P>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</P>"); exit(); } $Lon1 = mysql_query( "SELECT (ZG_LONGITUDE-2) FROM zip_code where zg_zipcode = '$zip'"); if (!$Lon1) { echo("<P>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</P>"); exit(); } $Lon2 = mysql_query( "SELECT (ZG_LONGITUDE+2) FROM zip_code where zg_zipcode = '$zip'"); if (!$Lon2) { echo("<P>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</P>"); exit(); } $ZipCode = mysql_query( "SELECT * FROM zip_code where ZG_LATITUDE >= '$Lat1' and ZG_LATITUDE <= '$Lat2' and ZG_LONGITUDE >= '$Lon1' and ZG_LONGITUDE <= '$Lon2'"); if (!$Zipcodesearch) { echo("<P>Error performing query: " . mysql_error() . "</P>"); exit(); } while ( $row = mysql_fetch_array($ZipCode) ) { echo("<b>City: </b>" . $row["ZG_CITY"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>State: </b>" . $row["ZG_STATE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Zip Code: </b>" . $row["ZG_ZIPCODE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Area Code: </b>" . $row["ZG_AREACODE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>County FIPS: </b>" . $row["ZG_COUNTY_FIPS"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>County Name: </b>" . $row["ZG_COUNTY_NAME"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Time Zone: </b>" . $row["ZG_TIME_ZONE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Day Light Savings?: </b>" . $row["ZG_DST"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Latitude: </b>" . $row["ZG_LATITUDE"]. "<br>"); echo("<b>Longitude: </b>" . $row["ZG_LONGITUDE"]. "<P>"); } ?> Basically I'm trying to have a user input a zip code and then have a php script pull all zip codes that are in a region of that submitted zip code. Can you have a look at my code and see what I'm doing wrong? When using this it returns no results but makes the connection to the database so I have to believe that it's within here that I have my issue. I have Apache/2.0.47 (Win32) PHP/4.3.9 Server and MySql 4.0.14 (I know I can upgrade and be able to do subselects but I would like to know what I'm doing wrong here. Thanks in advance for any help.
