[OpenLayers-Users] Distance Between Two Points

[Brian Krebs]

I'm geocoding an address and using the lat/lon to center my map when it
is first displayed.  The user can then click on the map to place a
marker which I'm capturing the lat/lon of.  The customer has a
requirement to not allow saving the lat/lon of the marker if it is more
than 1 mile away from the initial center lat/lon.  I noticed that in 2.4
RC1, there is a distanceTo function under Geometry.  I'm not ready to
move to that version yet so I'm using 2.3.  Is there some similar
functionality in this version or can someone give me a code example of
how to determine the distance?

 

Thanks
