Google Maps quick help

Iv been searching for a way to get the distance in miles from one location to another, and thought the best way is using google maps. Back in the day I did this by using a curl command and regular expressions (I know cringe) but im looking into using googles API for it.

Searched the web and found this:

http://groups.google.com/group/Google-Maps-API/browse_thread/thread/5c40d54ac3da1393

Which he claims works,

But when I copy and paste it to test it, after fixing some spaces and missing quotes, all I can get it to do is give me a blank div with a black line around.

Can anyone help me get it working ?

Thanks for your time.
