I wanted to share an example of using Dynamic Forms & SQLGridSelectorView 4.1(by Tresselworks). The example is for a zip code radius search by category.
I was originally going to use Dynamic Forms and GeoSprawl, but GeoSprawl doesn't have the ability to do searches by a category or type.
Basically the site has a listing a various activities, .e.,g., museums, farms, playgrounds, etc.
To implement, I used Dynamic Forms for the input values, SQLGridSelectorView to display the results. The only other piece needed is a zip code database with latitude & longitude.
Dynamic Forms passes the URL string and SQLGridSelectorView executes the sproc. There are no .dlls or 3rd party controls needed - just two modules, one sproc and one zip code database.
To see a working example, go to demo.norristownmom.com and select ACTIVITIES -> ACTIVITIES SEARCH. The activities are all in the state of PA, so to get results, you can use zip codes like 19444, 19128, 19403, 19426.
Hope you enjoy.
