Id 3165165 alternate names contain "torino" it's wrong
but Alternate names editor dont show it

It is the transliteration of the Japanese name.

Marc thi is a bug because if you search for torino whit autocomplete like this

http://jqueryui.com/demos/autocomplete/remote-jsonp.html

when you type torino you have Torino,Piedmont,Italy the right one and torino,Piedmont,Italy the wrong one because it is Trino

same problem whit ferentino whit trasliteration seem to be grottaferrata.... the trasliteration is a big problem

Grottaferrata had a wrong name 'Ferèntino'. This one has nothing todo with the transliteration. You have deleted the alternate name on July 19th.
The jquery demo is using a deprecated server (ws.geonames.org instead of api.geonames.org) which is updated infrequently and still has older data.

Marc

unfortunately with jquery autocomplete, http://api.geonames.org/search? don't works in explorer ws yes

the api. geonames.org servers require a username. Did you add it?

Yes, the problem is that api does not have a JSONP response that bypass cross domain limitation on jquery can you add JSONP on api?
more and more user still use ws for this problem

or add something like in php

header('content-type: application/json; charset=utf-8');
header("access-control-allow-origin: *");

In your java JSON service

Ok. I have have added the second line. The first line was already there.

But why is it required on the api.geonames.org domain and not on the ws.geonames.org domain?

Marc

Still do not whorks

The ws.geonames.org and the api.geonames.org server are running the same code. If jsonp is working on one server then it is also working on the other.

Yes marc now it's whorks maybe you can contat jquery developer for change example code
replace this line

url: "http://api.geonames.org/search?username=demo",
dataType: "jsonp",
data: {
featureClass: "P",
style: "full",
type:"json",
maxRows: 12,
name_startsWith: request.term
},
