You can find it <a href="http://www.designing4u.de/2008/11/google-maps-and-jquery-calculating-distance-between-two-points/" rel="nofollow">here</a>. I hope it will help you :) Hi again,

I just wrote an example how you can accomplish that. You can find it here. I hope it will help you :)

I'll try to write an example how to accomplish this and post the link to it here. Hi Allison,

I'm not sure if I explained it clearly enough the 2nd time around so I'll try to paint a better picture of what I'm trying to do. Ok, so I have a line kml file filled with differents routes to take. Within that line kml file I have tags refering to the starting building where the line starts and then another set of tags that include the ending building where the line ends. I'm wanting to use this one file and create a dropdown menu like option value="Kerr Hall">Kerr HallLibrary</option ect... Then a second drop down list. Listing the same buildings and then the submit button could search through that one Line kml file so the user would be able to go from Kerr Hall to the Library and find that specific route from the line data.

Like say I have a kml file with tags referring to the starting building and ending building. Is is possible to create two drop down menus one for the starting building and one for the ending building and then click the sumbit button to search through one kml file of many paths and get the specifications that I want? I was thinking AJAX might be the only way to do this or possibly JQuery with AJAX. Well, I’m not exactly clear if you can use this way for line data instead of point data.

I have more time now and can help you. I need some clarification before I write a new example. Do you want to measure the distance between this two points? Or should it just display two markers and according to the drop down you are using remove the respective marker? @Allison

I just checked this demo on Opera 9.27 Build 8841 and it works fine for me. I changed the demo site a little bit, so you can see the geographical lengths in the text now. Can you see them? If you could describe your problem a little bit more precisely, maybe I could help you better. Hi Chris.
