Don't think this is right.
You can get UK postcode lookup either via the UK Ordnance Survey's
OpenSpace, or via Google Search. As the latter includes NI, but the
former doesn't (different mapping agency), I use the latter for
preference. Here's how:
searchGoogle = new google.search.LocalSearch();
searchGoogle.setSearchCompleteCallback( null, postCodeCallBack );
searchGoogle.execute( "<PostCode search string>,UK" );
function postCodeCallBack()
{
result = null;
try
{
result = searchGoogle.results[0];
}
catch(e)
{
alert( "No match found!" );
}
return result;
}
Note: This exact coding is untested because my actual code is part of
a more complicated page, but I think it should run first time, or only
require minor tweaks if not.
