Business Near Me
I'm using Linksql as a business directory
I want user to be able to view businesses near them in real time.
I currently use a zip code search and Google category maps plugin but I want to upgrade to use Geolocation

All suggestions will be appreciated.

Hi,

If you want to use Geo Locating, I would suggest having a look at something like:

http://search.cpan.org/...P-1.41/lib/Geo/IP.pm

From that, you should be able to get a lat/lng value, and then use that to locate.

Hope that helps

Cheers

That code is a little over my head. I would take me several of days to learn what I need.
What would you charge?

I currently using your get category Plugin to list featured links on my home page, I rather list links that are near the user.

<%Plugins::ULTRAGlobals::All_Links_In_Category(69749,'50')%>

<%if all_links_in_this_cat.length%>
<%loop all_links_in_this_cat%>
<%include link.html%>
<%endloop%>
<%endif%>
