    Postcode proximity search

      Hi all, I've been asked to produce a zip/postcode proximity search for a store locator along the lines of the following:

       

      http://www.bose.co.uk/GB/en/dealer/

       

      I'm wondering if anybody can point out some tutorials for achieving this, or perhaps have some other solution that might work just as well for the user experience.

       

      My problem with the Bose example is that my client likes the facility, but they don't have the frequency of stores that Bose do, so if a user does search but the map returns no immediately visible markers, then it looks like the search has failed to return any results when in fact it has, it just requires the user to pan around the map... which isn't ideal.

       

      So, if you could give me any tutorials or other solutions you might know of, I'll take a look and hopefully find something that will suit my requirements.

       

      Thanks in advance.
