// This function was originally written by R.V. as
// shown on the algorithm section of code gallery (http://www.zend.com/codex.php?
id=32&single=1).
// I tried that function and found that it is not given the same answer (I dont know whether
Raplh's math is right)
// as given by my function shown below.
//Also It is much simpler math and gives direction of 2nd point with respect first

$deg2mile = 69.09; //for earth
$temp1 = cos(deg2rad($lat1));

$dist = sqrt( $temp1 * $temp2 * pow($lon1 - $lon2 , 2) + pow($lat1 - $lat2, 2) );
$miles = $dist * $deg2mile;
