Simple PHP Script for driving distance?

powerss

I can't seem to find this even though it seems like 1) someone would have built it and 2) it seems SO EASY.

I'd like two fields - "From" and "To" - these can accept city/state, zipcode, or address (less crucial) and then it spits out the distance between the two. Probably uses Google Maps API I'm sure.

Is this possible/already made?

Google maps, from my limited testing seems to do everything you want. Just use the 'get directions' part. It tells you time and distance for am variety of routes. Or do you want distance as the crow flies?

I know google maps does it, but I want to put that function on my own site

You'd want to leverage the DirectionsDistance object in the Google Maps API.
