Zip code input to return location

I am wondering if there is a spry tool that I can use. I want
the user to input one of about 50 zip codes in my area and then
based on that input, return one of 3 locations(address).
TIA,
Bill

If you're in the USA and your server supports PHP -
A to Z store locator is fairly easy to work with:
www.php4script.com/store-locator-script/
Other flavors and zip code support can be found at HotScripts

  • Zip code retail store locator

    Hi guys,
    Does anyone know the best, least-expensive way to add a
    zip-code based
    retail store locator for a wholesale site that has 2000
    retailers in its
    database?
    BTW: My backend coding skills are very limited.
    Thanks,
    Fudo

    I have sent my solution created for a store several years
    back to a lot of
    people here .. if you want to see it in action, go to
    http://www.firepit.com
    and click on "Where to Buy". It's done in ASP/VB .. but if
    you like that
    solution and server model, write to me offlist and I'll send
    you the files.

  • Zip Code Locator / Store Locator

    Guys,
    I want to write a simple store-locator functionality in my website (Using a Mysql db with JSP-java etc.,)
    I am not sure of the tools I need and how to approach the problem (once I get a Map of all the zip codes)... Please throw in some ideas that can help me on this...
    Thanks a ton!

    The earth is ~ 40,000 km equatorial circumference
    Mapped as rectangular projection ignoring poles is 40,000 km x 16,000 km = 640,000,000 1km x 1km cells
    so 1 byte/km2 = 640 MB
    or 1 word/(250m x 250m) = 4*4*4*640MB = 40GB
    So a reasonable brute force method for the planet (and a few big memory servers or a not very big fast disk) would work in most cases.
    Obviously, if you're only interested in one part of the globe you scale down.
    The USA is something like 10,000 km square so a �60 520GB disk would give you a 1/sqrt(500E9/4/(10E6m^2)) = 28m resolution lookup at < 10ms time per request.
    A second lookup of the id returned from the big bitmap using the nearest neighbour approach for a few points would take you further, if required.
    How much is your time worth to develop an efficient solution, if throwing �60 of hardware at it would be good enough?
    Short of buying an awful lot of memory, any solution will hit the disk at least once (though you may be able to optimise away seeking, it's a query and won't be streaming whatever you do), so the overall time isn't likely to get much better without a lot of effort.
    You can always trade off between the bitmap/localised query for space and speed.

  • Is there a way of adding a zip code locator

    I'm doing a website for a business with 6 locations and would like for the customer to be able to type in their zip code to find the closest store in their area.
    I've done a custom google map usng (mapsenginelite) but would like to add some how the zip code locator. Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Some websites show my location wrong zip code, how do I change zip code?

    At some websites firefox shows me as located at a wrong zip code. Where does it get this information and how do I change it so it comes up with the correct zip code?
    Checked these:
    http://whatismyipaddress.com/
    http://browserspy.dk/geolocation.php
    First one is correct & the the 2nd one is NOT....

    Which of the locations is wrong on the second (browserspy) link?
    The IP based map should show that same location as whatismyipaddress.<br />
    The Geolocation Based Map is empty for me (Latitude is undefined; Longitude is undefined) and may only work properly if you use a wireless connection to a known hotspot.

  • Why is my location city changed by Firefox to a town I don't live in? I put in my zip code in the weather info and it will not hold it no matter what I do. This is very frustrating and never a problem in the past. IE doesn't have the problem. Help?

    Why is my location city changed by Firefox to a town I don't live in? I put in my zip code in the weather info and it will not hold it no matter what I do. This is very frustrating and never a problem in the past. IE doesn't have the problem. Can anyone help?

    1) Is it a video clip? Something you recognize?  To be clear, it's displaying at a point in your exported movie but doesn't appear at all in the sequence?
    2) What are your sequence settings?  Right-click your sequence and choose "Item Properties" to verify.

  • Recently I have been unable to acccess my local weather or other zip code weather reports on the Weather Channel using my laptop. My wife has no problem accessing from her laptop from same location.

    This problem is new. I have always been able to access the Weather Channel's website and obtain weather reports for various zip codes. I have Window 7 and use Firefox and Google. I have The Weather Channel as one of my Bookmarks. The site comes up when requested but the three locations that I had listed are not evident and when I type in the zip codes nothing comes up.

    Hi there, I have the same problem with my envy 17ts-j100. I was trying to recover and I had a reset failed massage to I powered it off and went to sleep. The laptop won't boot to bios with symptoms as above.
    Somebody please help out.

  • CS6 form validation script code does allow return to form o get missing entry and then sends

    When submitting a form with a missing entry the validation code missing info popup window works correctly. However when you click OK to return to the form to correct it, the form is sent and doesn't return to correct the information. Something is missing in the Script code.

  • Firefox will not allow me to change the zip code on the Walmart website.

    When I follow a link to Walmart it automatically puts in an incorrect My Store location and zip code. I change it, close Firefox, re-open and try again. Same thing. It does not do that with other browsers. I have removed cookies several times, I have uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox but nothing seems to work.

    Details like this are stored in a cookie.
    Try to "Remove Cookies" Walmart cookies and check that they are still gone after closing and restarting Firefox:
    *Firefox/Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"
    Also make sure to close all tabs with the Walmart site to prevent Firefox from storing them in the sessionstore.js file as part of session data.
    It is possible that the <i>cookies.sqlite</i> file that stores the cookies is corrupted if clearing cookies doesn't work.
    Rename (or delete) <b>cookies.sqlite</b> (cookies.sqlite.old) and delete other present cookies files like <b>cookies.sqlite-journal</b> in the Firefox profile folder in case the file cookies.sqlite got corrupted.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Cookies
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Deleting+cookies
    You can remove all data stored in Firefox from a specific domain via "Forget About This Site" in the right-click context menu of an history entry ("History > Show All History" or "View > Sidebar > History") or via the about:permissions page.
    Using "Forget About This Site" will remove all data stored in Firefox from that domain like bookmarks, cookies, passwords, cache, history, and exceptions, so be cautious and if you have a password or other data from that domain that you do not want to lose then make a note of those passwords and bookmarks.
    You can't recover from this 'forget' unless you have a backup of the involved files.
    It doesn't have any lasting effect, so if you revisit such a 'forgotten' website then data from that website will be saved once again.

  • Segmentation on basis of Zip code

    Hi,
    i am trying to create segmentation using Zip code. iam creating a Z infoset by joining tables using base table BUT000 and field Post_code1 from table ADRC . infoset is created sucessfully but when i create profile & target group .it shows no bp with any filter.
    Is this the only way to create segmentation on basis of Zip code.
    any inputs will be help full.
    Regards
    Rajiv sharma

    Hi Rajiv,
    The ZIP code ( technical field:- POST_CODE1, Table:- ADDR2_DATA ) is basically a field of data type CHAR of size 10.
    So in segmentation when you try to create a filter with Equal to say zip code 12345 it basically tries to compare the integer value 12345 with a character 12345 and thus this does not give exact result.
    Did u try creating filer with "Contains Pattern". and see if it works.
    rgrds,

  • Using AJAX to load city, state, metro area based on zip code

    I'm new to getting APEX to work with AJAX properly. I've been reading some tutorials and trying to apply what they do to my situation, but I'm running into a problem. I have a text field item for zip code. What I want to happen is that when someone enters in a zip code, I want to use AJAX to populate 3 different select lists (1 each for state, city, and metro area) and to populate a checkbox (of neighborhoods based on the zip code as well). I'm looking at the examples in:
    http://www.oraclealchemist.com/wp-content/uploads/2006/11/s281946.pdf
    and
    http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:63
    But they all use examples where the value of a text field item is used to populate 1 select list. I can't figure out how to apply that methodology to populate 3 select lists and 1 checkbox item. I've got all my SELECT statements written to populate these fields based on the value of the zip code text field item, but don't know how to convert what I already have to use AJAX.
    Here are my SELECT statements:
    P2805_STATE lov:
    ===========================================================================================
    SELECT INITCAP(GEO_DATA_STATE.STATEFULLNAME) d,GEO_DATA_STATE.STATE v
    FROM GEO_DATA_STATE, GEO_DATA_ZIP

    end;It doesn't look like I would have to modify the appendToSelect function at all, correct? Is the checkbox that I need to populate handled the same way as these select lists? And it seems like I only need to make the 2 changes that you mentioned to get_AJAX_SELECT_XML function, right? So my javascript function should be like:
    &lt;script language="JavaScript1.1" type="text/javascript"&gt;
    function get_AJAX_SELECT_XML(pThis,pSelect1,pSelect2,pSelect3,pSelect4){
    if  (document.getElementById('P2805_ZIPCODE').value.length == 5)
         var l_Return = null;
         var l_Select1 = $x(pSelect1);
         var l_Select2 = $x(pSelect2);
         var l_Select3 = $x(pSelect3);
         var l_Select4 = $x(pSelect4);
         var get = new htmldb_Get(null,$x('pFlowId').value,'APPLICATION_PROCESS=otn_Select_XML',0);
         get.add('TEMPORARY_ITEM',pThis.value);
         gReturn = get.get('XML');
         var sels = gReturn.getElementsByTagName("select");
         if(gReturn && l_Select1){
              var l_Count = sels[0].getElementsByTagName("option").length;
              l_Select1.length = 0;
              for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
                   var l_Opt_Xml = sels[0].getElementsByTagName("option");
                   appendToSelect(l_Select1, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
         if(gReturn && l_Select2){
              var l_Count = sels[1].getElementsByTagName("option").length;
              l_Select2.length = 0;
              for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
                   var l_Opt_Xml = sels[1].getElementsByTagName("option")[i];
                   appendToSelect(l_Select2, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
         if(gReturn && l_Select3){
              var l_Count = sels[2].getElementsByTagName("option").length;
              l_Select3.length = 0;
              for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
                   var l_Opt_Xml = sels[2].getElementsByTagName("option")[i];
                   appendToSelect(l_Select3, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
         if(gReturn && l_Select4){
              var l_Count = sels[3].getElementsByTagName("option").length;
              l_Select4.length = 0;
              for(var i=0;i<l_Count;i++){
                   var l_Opt_Xml = sels[3].getElementsByTagName("option")[i];
                   appendToSelect(l_Select4, l_Opt_Xml.getAttribute('value'), l_Opt_Xml.firstChild.nodeValue)
         get = null;
    &lt;/script&gt;
    And then since all 4 items (3 select lists and 1 checkbox item) are populated based on the value inputted in the text field item, I would only need to add the following to the html form element attribute of my text field item, right?
    onKeyUp="javascript:get_AJAX_SELECT_XML(this,'P2805_STATE','P2805_CITY','P2805_METRO_AREA','P2805_NEIGHBORHOOD');"Denes, thanks for the example. It seems like what I need to do is somewhere inbetween what you have and what's in the example on http://apex.oracle.com/pls/otn/f?p=11933:37. I have 3 select lists and 1 checkbox item that should all be populate depending on the value entered for the text item. Do I still need to split everything up then into a function and an on demand process for each select list and checkbox?

  • How do I display an invalid zip code in a summary table

    On my airshow website we have a feedback form, one of the questions is the zipcode where the visitor came from. This works fine. The summary results tab includes a lookup for the zipcode where I show the city associated with the zipcode and then how many responses came from that zipcode. This can be seen here http://www.hollisterairshow.com/feedback-results.php?tab=7
    In testing, I found that an invalid zipcode is not displayed in the summary table, although it is counted in the total number of responses. I'd like to display the invalid zipcode and leave the City blank, or maybe put "Invalid zip code". The current code is displayed below, it's beyond my ability to figure out how I should change it to display invalid zipcodes and I'd really appreciate some direction on this.
    I know I could validate the zipcode on entry but it's quite possible the zipcode table I have is out of date and i can't find a free downloadable list, so I'm thinking anything invalid could cause me to update my table.which is fine.
    Thanks for any assistance.

    <div class="TabbedPanelsContent">
    <?php
    // Make a MySQL Connection
    $query = "SELECT feedback.zip, COUNT(feedback.zip), zipcodes.citystate FROM feedback, zipcodes WHERE feedback.zip = zipcodes.zipcode GROUP BY feedback.zip";
    $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
    // Print out result
    while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))
    echo $row['zip']. " ". $row['COUNT(feedback.zip)']. " ". $row['citystate'];
    echo "<br />";
    ?>
    </div>

    Use an outer join on the two tables so that results are returned for all feedback rows, instead of just matching rows. The column zipcodes.citystate will be NULL. In your recordset output, you can test for null in the column and populate it with "Invalid Zipcode" if you want.
    You'll need to move the join to the FROM clause as I believe that MySQL does not support outer joins in the WHERE clause like most other DBMS's.

  • Safari 2.0 zip code bug?

    This is a problem I've started to notice on a bunch of webpages (including newegg.com) with Safari 2.0. Many times Safari will not let me enter my zip code into an HTML form field because it starts with a zero (like about half the zip codes in the U.S. northeast). Let us say my zip code is 02142 -- when I enter it in, Safair "autocorrects" it to "2142" after the control loses focus. Nothing seems to undo this, and I can't find any setting that fixes it. So the site I submit it to says, "Hey, that's not a valid zip code!" I've tried it with Firefox and Internet Explorer and neither seem to do this behavior (so I often have to leave whatever transaction I was trying to go through, open up Internet Explorer, and re-do the entire transaction -- all because Safari doesn't trust me to know what I want to type in).
    The HTML code from newegg.com which is doing this: <input name="zipcode1" type="text" size="4" maxlength="5" value=""> So it's nothing in particular about the form coding that I can tell -- it looks like Safari is just assuming that because I'm typing in a number, I can't possibly want it to start with a zero. Which is just ridiculous in a large number of contexts.
    Any way to turn this off? It is really getting irritating, and it's the sort of "application knowing what I want to do better than I do" idiocy which I think of being exclusively in the domain of Microsoft products. Which ironically don't seem to have this problem!
    NOTE: I am not using an Autofill zip code. I am just trying to enter it in manually.

    I can confirm this bug (isn't it irritating?). One solution is to use another browser; I've never had this problem in Firefox. Another would be to turn off AutoFill; even though you're not using an AutoFill entry, AutoFill seems to have this unfortunate effect on leading zeros entered manually.
    Next time you run across a page that won't take your zip code, click on Safari/Report bugs to Apple and send a bug report. Maybe if enough of us on the East Coast complain, someone will fix it.

  • Zip code entry problem

    On some websites there is a field requesting a 5 digit zip code. When I type the zip code into the field all 5 digits show--- when I tab to the next field, one of the zip code digits drops out (either first or last) and leaves only 4 digits. The information is returned as incorrect and asks (again) for a 5 digit zip code. What to do ???

    I had this problem for a while using Safari to enter ZIP codes into some forms -- but only when the ZIP code started with (at least one) zero. The work-around was to use MS IE for Mac (which I hear is still available, just no longer supported) for those sites. It's probably worth trying FireFox, too.
    I don't know whether the real problem is in Safari or in the web sites -- the same version of Safari worked on some sites but not others, so I suspect that the problem lies with the FORM definitions on the affected sites, in which case the real fix would be to convince the site designers to fix their forms.

  • Pass URL parameter for zip code

    In this fake url I want to pass the zip code value of the confirmed BP into "zipcode"
    https://acme.com/locator.jsp?zip=zipcode
    from the other post I have read the parameter name would be "zipcode" and thru the transaction launcher I am able to assign parameter value =
    //selectedClmBpLinkRelationship/BpRelLinkBusinessPartner/BuilStandardAddressRel/POSTL_COD1
    The transaction launcher is opening the launcher but not passing the value into the field. The window opens but the field is not filled with the zip code.
    If I open a new ie browser and put in url
    https://acme.com/locator.jsp?zip=60001
    the url is reached and 60001 is filling the zip code field.
    Is there an easy way to debug and see if any value is getting passed?
    Am I conceptually on base for what I am trying to do?

    Hi Shwetha,
        That got me pointed in the right direction where we could get it to work.
    For others, these were some other points we used to get it to work.
    1. in the IMG where the url is defined don't add the ZIP parameter here so our IMG entry =  https://acme.com/locator.jsp?
    when the page launched correctly the parameters showed https://acme.com/locator.jsp?&zipcode=60001
    2. for zip code parameter value we used //currentCustomer/BuilStandardAddressRel/POSTL_COD1  >> this goes in the transaction launcher with parameter zipcode and is then visible in the IMG entry "copy/delete launch transactions"
