Hi,

I am trying to use the geocode function in the API to return the long/
lat of several uk postcodes. The problem I have is as follows:

If I send the postcode "BD7 1DP" as the address, the API will return
the long/lat of the center of "BD7 1" instead of "BD7 1DP". This is
odd, because typing BD7 1DP into Google Maps works great. This isn't
an issue with a particular postcode, geocoding "WA8 9FX" for example
just gives me the center of "WA8 9".

If I do the same thing with Yahoo Maps API, I get the center of BD7
1DP, which is what I'm after. I'd rather use the Google API as I
prefer it. Is there anything I can do to force the geocoding of the
full postcode or do I have to use Yahoo Maps instead?

Thanks.
