FM8.5 and Googlemap Question

[Jarvis]

I'm not sure where to post this question, so I thought I would try here.

I just started to get my head around the new web stuff in FM8.5.

I think it is pretty cool how you can have a map show up based on an address in a field.

I would like to take this a click further.

Google Map has this feature where you can ask for directions.

A subset of that feature tells you how many miles you will have to travel to get where you want to go.

[color:red]Is there a way to extract JUST the number of miles you will need to travel? I would like to post just this data, without the corresponding map picture.

If anybody can aim me towards a plug in or custom function that can do this I would be most appreciative.
