Translation of street address into lat/long.

should be able to get this kind of info on the sly from mapquest...

I'm about half way through a perl script that will do all necessary queries based on either lat/long or street address input. I'll submit it when it's ready.

So it looks like mapquest and yahoo don't include Lat/Long in their URLs anymore!
Grr... I know they did at one point...

If anybody knows of a Lat/Long to Street Address translator online, please let me
know

mapquest still does. it just comes back as part of the cookie instead of the URL.

Thanks for the pointer. I didn't even think to check the cookies! Mmm...cookies...(sound of Cookie Monster devouring a plate of chocolate chip cookies)
