Use inType=0 and feed in a specific Google Maps URL to parse out the GeoCoords from the URL
e.g. http://maps.google.com/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&geocode=&q=53154&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=52.505328,80.507812&ie=UTF8&ll=42.858224,-88.000832&spn=0.047943,0.078621&t=h&z=14
Function returns a string of geocoords (e.g. "-87.9010610,42.8864960")

Use inType=1 and feed in a zip code, address, or business name
Function returns a string of geocoords (e.g. "-87.9010610,42.8864960")
If an invalid address, zip code or location was entered, the function will return "0,0"
