There seems to be a marked difference in the search functionality between geonames.org/advanced-search and the downloadable tables. For instance, if I search for Perth, WA by:

http://www.geonames.org/advanced-search.html?q=perth%2C+wa&country=&featureClass=&continentCode=

Then the search correctly reverts with Perth, Australia.

In the Cities/Regions/Countries there seems no way to do this without adhering to the rigid 'Perth, Western Australia'.

Am I missing something? Thank you in advance.
