i am using a php script (followed this tutorial http://www.bitconsultants.net/2010/geocoding-with-google-maps-and-the-zend-framework/) to get the latitude and longitude of different adresses,

the problem is that if i manually search an address in google maps it gives me the right location,
while using the php script, the json response from google is even 500meters away from the manual search result, which makes it kind of pointless for my needs…

i am passing the address in this format

$address = "{$data['street']}, {$data['postcode']}, {$data['city']}, {$data['province']}";

and i am passing google a key

thank you
