I'm looking for a script that I can display on my site, where a visitor can enter their zip code & find a film playing at a theater near them.

If your looking to have this script and all the data contained on your site your looking at a massive amount of data entry and weekly upkeep depending on your coverage area.

However if your simply looking to provide a form on your site that will take the user to another site to receive the data, that is pretty easy. I've included a form below that can be placed on a page that a user can fill out and when clicked will take them to http://www.hollywood.com/ for the results. This is just something I did quick as an example, I'm not sure of the legality of it, so you may want to check with Hollywood.com before implementing it. :D

# Zipcode movie search
<form name="fLRSearch1" method="get" action="http://www.hollywood.com/search/fh.asp">
<input type="hidden" name="loctype" value="1">
<input type="hidden" name="stype" value="2">
<input name="geosearch" type="text" value size="5" maxlength="5">
<input type="submit" name="Submit" value="Submit">
</form>

This might also be against the terms of service and/or acceptable use policy of hollywood.com. I suggest you ask them first.

Someone sent me a script that seems better. I'd have to get the permission of Yahoo! first.

Thanks anyway.
