Business Zipcode Lookup

    I am looking for a zipcode lookup script where the user can enter their zipcode in a form field and receive the closest store location. This is just a basic script that will calculate the distance (radius) from a retail store and match it to the best zipcode. i can modify it if there is a class available. PHP is preferred. im also open to outsourcing this work.

    alternatively, i would be open to a hosted solution.

    I can build this for you if you have a database of zipcodes and their lat/long. That's generally how they are done.

    There are some free ones for sure.

    Intensively search Google/HotScripts

    I myself used that script, but was a long time and I don't have it now.

    Peace,
