I dont think this is possible, at least in germany one city can have more than one postal code. To get the postal code in this cases you need to have the street and housenumber to get the right code. I could imagine that it is the same in other countries


GeoIP will only ever get you the location of the ISP, not the subscriber. Every single AOL subscriber seems to be in Hernedon, VA, USA, for example. Even though their numbers are dropping precipitously, there's still not room for all of them there! If you want a person's Zip/Postal code, you generally have to ask them, and make it worth their while (dealer locator widget, etc.).
