If the value in $distance is just an integer, you don't need the json_encode call. You can just do a php echo of $distance. Something like |

if you right click > view html source in your web browser, you would see for yourself that you have an extra set of quotes. And, good for you for using json_encode() to output it as a string. That's an excellent way to safely output a value to javascript. although, if its an integer, theres no need here. |
