Is there any webservice or Jquery plugin to get longitude and latitude

Am trying to integrate goople map api with a jquery plugin- gMap.

It looks good and simple. It needs latitude and longitude to produce dynamic maps.

So am looking for any plugin or webservice which can give me the lat and long if i pass the address , city , country.

Any info is invited!

Is there any jquery map plugin which can generate map by just giving address?

$("#locmap").live("click", function(){
        $('#map5').gM开发者_开发技巧ap(
                {
                     markers: [{ 
                     address: 'address',
                         html: "location name",
                         popup: true
                         }],
                         zoom:6
                });
        });

gMap can use an address instead of lat/long. Just use

$('#map').gMap({address: 'address, city, country'}, zoom:10})

You can find some info here: http://www.jquery4u.com/api-calls/geo-location-2-lines-javascript/

this gives a map by passing only the address in: http://maps.google.co.uk/maps?q=yemen+road,+yemen&hl=en
