says no results, as do any other canadian postal code I plug in.

Thanks!

fixed. I think it was a version incompatibility of some functions. Any how it works now.

Seams like it isn't working for me.

US zip code works but no Canadian PostalCodes are.

Using Firefox's Firebug, i can see the reply for the following request:
Code:

callback	getLocation
 country	        CA
 noCacheIE	34524353425  (I changed this code as it can be sensitive info)
 postalcode	H3A 2M8
 style	           long

The response is:
Code:

 getLocation({"postalcodes":[]});

Thanks for any help !

Hi

For Canada we only have the first three letters, the so called FSA. You have to pass the country code, then we will strip the trailing characters.
