In Drupal 6 I have a node type with a CCK/OpenLayers WKT field and profiles with a CCK/OpenLayers WKT field.

I want to create a view showing nodes that are close to the current user. I was assuming this would be a simple issue but I can not figure out how to do that. Is that even possible?

I am looking to do this as well, In the user profile I added a cck location field with WKT but I just can't figure out what/where to hook that into the proximity table.

Anyone have any thoughts on how to do this?

@Cellar Door: For your information. I was able to do this with the Location module and it's Approximity module but I ran into other issues (not related to this one) that made my try out OpenLayers. Maybe this info is usefull to you.

I did a lot of searching yesterday and found no answer. I did find your post with the related issue on Drupal 7. I'm trying this on Drupal 6. To me it seems like an obvious feature because I can imagine a lot of websites needing something like a "show items close to me" link. Let's hope we are just overlooking something ;-)
