At the time of creating this ticket, it doesn't work, presumably because the names of the CGI parameters have changed. This is mildly embarrasing.

Comment:
Interesting... If I visit OGL, go to Piccadilly Circus Station by whatever means, and use the "find me everything within 500 metres" option, I get a different link:
http://london.openguides.org/supersearch.cgi?latlong_dist=500&latitude=5...
We don't need the parameter Go=Go, as this is merely the name of the submit button, but the rest of the parameters have all metamorphosised:
lat => latitude long => longitude distance_in_metres => latlong_dist
The question is, can kake update the original feature on perl.dom or do we need to change OpenGuides to maintain backward compatibility?

Surely a simple redirect would work here?
