Local event search using postcodes

    Hi. I was wondering if there is a way to list ALL the postcodes so that I can use them to make a local event search with Google maps.

    I found this code online

    <!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=UTF-8"/>
    <title>Google Maps API Geocoding Demo</title>
    <script src="https://maps.google.com/maps?file=api&v=2&sensor=false"
            type="text/javascript"></script>
  </head>
  <body onunload="GUnload()">
    <div id="map_canvas" style="width: 400px; height: 300px"></div> 

    <script type="text/javascript">
       var geocoder = new GClientGeocoder();
       var map = new GMap2(document.getElementById("map_canvas"));
       var i;

       var postcodes = [
          'SL59JH',
          'LU13TQ',
          'SR29TD',
          'DA75BQ',
          'EC1V9B'
        ];

       map.setCenter(new GLatLng(54.00, -3.00), 5);

       for (i = 0; i < postcodes.length; i++) {
          geocoder.getLatLng(postcodes[i] + ', UK', function (point) {
             if (point) {
                map.addOverlay(new GMarker(point));
             }
          });
       }
    </script>
  </body>
</html>

    where it says ` var postcodes = [
    ‘SL59JH’,
    ‘LU13TQ’,
    ‘SR29TD’,
    ‘DA75BQ’,
    ‘EC1V9B’
    ];`
    is it possible to call all of the EMPostcodes to fit inside that array?

    Yes, you could, I’d suggest doing a normal DB query on wp_em_locations and grab the information that way, unless you to filter specific locations out.

    Thanks for the advice, I need to research how to call the DB wp+em_locations and put it into that format ‘_’, .

    I will try it tonight and give feedback.
