We have measured the cross section σ(e
+
e
–→π
+
π
–
γ) with the KLOE detector at DAΦNE, at an energy W=M
φ
=1.02 GeV. From the dependence of the cross section on , where E
γ
is the energy of the photon radiated from the initial state, we extract σ(e
+
e
–→π
+
π
–) for the mass range 0.35<m
2(π
+
π
–)<0.95 GeV2. From our result we extract the pion form factor and the hadronic contribution to the muon anomaly, a
μ
