July 9, 201015 yr Hello everybody, I was thinking if I can integrate Google maps distance estimation into Filemaker. I know that I can use Web Viewer, but it's going to show me the whole page. I'm interested only in the actual distance between two zip code inputs.Do you think I can use Web Viewer to show me only a portion of google map site ? ( The idea is similar to Web Clip Dashboard on Mac OS) . Thanks
July 10, 201015 yr I've seen it done before by getting the source HTML from a hidden web viewer, then parsing it with a long text calculation to extract the distance required. Ugly, probably not completely legal, but it works well - until the structure of Google's result page changes :-) James
