Thank You for your replay...

For your idea I whatched following link

http://geoserver.org/display/GEOSDOC/How+a+GetFeature+request+works

but for that I need a database with all the citynames right?!?!?!?

Is there no function or webservice or something like that, that I can send a
request with my coords for example to OpenStreetMaps via JavaScript and get
back the Cityname?

Regards
