Get all records from MySQL database that are within Google Maps .getBounds?

Question

Ok I have a database with about 1800 rows, each has a column lat and long, what I am trying to do, it query against Google Maps V3 .getBounds

Answer 1

I'm not sure the above statement is correct. Firstly, I believe the corners are nelat, nelng, swlat, swlng not as stated above "swlat, swlng, nwlat, nwlng". Secondly I believe the nelat is always going to be higher than the swlat of the window (unless the window covers one of the geographic poles which I'm not sure is even possible with google maps).

Finally, if the window covers the international date line (approx +/-180lng) i.e d < b then surely it should be "NOT BETWEEN b AND d". Perhaps someone with more specialist knowledge could confirm?
