I have a PHP page containing the following code to get latitude and longitude from a user input postal code.
But when I tried to echo the latitude and longitude, nothing is shown.
<?php
function getLnt($zip){
$url = "http://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=".urlencode($zip)."&sensor=false";
$result_string = file_get_contents($url);
$result = json_decode($result_string, true);
return $result['results'][0]['geometry']['location'];
}
getLnt("750341");
?>
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<?php
$val = getLnt('90001');
echo "Latitude: ".$val['lat']."<br>";
echo "Longitude: ".$val['lng']."<br>";
?>
</body>
</html>

Please add key parameter in api request. Key value you need to replace with google API key.
$url = "https://maps.googleapis.com/maps/api/geocode/json?address=".urlencode($postal_code)."&sensor=false&key=googleapi";
$result_string = file_get_contents($url);
$result = json_decode($result_string, true);
if(!empty($result['results'])){
$zipLat = $result['results'][0]['geometry']['location']['lat'];
$ziplng = $result['results'][0]['geometry']['location']['lng'];
}

I've tested your code and it works perfectly, my guess is that you've exceeded your daily quota for the Google Places API Web Service.
A quick solution is to apply for a key at:
