I'm using the free version, and I'm geocoding on input - so I'm only ever
working with one address at a time. If it returns multiple addresses, I then
ask the user for clarification. It seems to be working reasonably well,
though it's not in production yet.
Here's the webservice call version that Paul Hastings sent me off-list. It
also works.
<cfscript>
geocoder=createObject("webservice","
http://geocoder.us/dist/eg/clients/GeoCoder.wsdl";);
geocodeResults=geocoder.geocode_address("721 River St,Peckville, PA 18452");
</cfscript>
<!--- hints at other goodies --->
<cfdump var="#geocodeResults#">
<cfoutput>
<cfloop index="i" from="1" to="#arrayLen(geocodeResults)#">
latitude: #geocodeResults[i].getLat()#, longitude:
#geocodeResults[i].get_Long()# <br>
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>
