Sebastian, The Yahoo! Geocoder terms of service state that the results from the geocoder can only be displayed on top of a Yahoo! Map. (THe Google Geocoder has the same set of terms.) Specifically: You shall not: (ix) use the stand-alone geocoder for any use other than displaying Yahoo! Maps or displaying points on Yahoo! Maps; http://info.yahoo.com/legal/us/yahoo/maps/mapsapi/mapsapi-2141.html (1.f.x) Does the Yahoo Geocoder control ensure that the results are being plotted on a Yahoo! Map in some way? Barring that, I'm hesitant to do something which seems to cleary violate the Yahoo! API terms of use, unless I"m misunderstanding something...
