Hi Chuck ..

I created a test ad and entered my zipcode as 21014

Want to Sell - Quartermaster Stores (Member Classifieds)

I then simply did a show the ads in the category and I see the pic below.

It shows 8,313 miles to Bel Air, Maryland, but I never entered anything anywhere in any drop down box that it would have another data point (ie: another zip code) to compare to in order to show this result?

Since I just tested with a U.S. zipcode, I don't think this has anything to do with Canadian zipcodes, but rather the fact that on both Safari 5.0 and Firefox 3.6.6, I never see any option to type in a zipcode box where I am, in order for the program to calculate the distance. It's picking up some value someplace, but it's not something I'm typing in.

Make any sense?

Regards,
Doug
