GeoNames Forum

I use the following request
request = 'http://ws.geonames.org/findNearbyPlaceNameJSON?lat=' + puntlocatielat + '&lng=' + puntlocatielng + '&callback=getLocation';

when the lat and lng point for example to greenland than I get the following error in my callback:
name is empty or no object.

The callback looks like this:
if (jData != null) {
var place = jData.geonames[0];
puntstad = place["name"];
puntprovincie = place["adminName1"];
puntland = place["countryName"];
puntlandcode = place["countryCode"];
}
...

I can imagine that there is no city out there, but is it possible that I can pick up this error, because now I get a blank page and the indication that there is an error. Do I have to check an errorcode??? How and what?
