when i search for
http://ws.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON?lang=en&maxRows=10&username=demo&country=DE&placename=muenchen

its the same results, when i search for
http://ws.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON?lang=en&maxRows=10&username=demo&country=DE&placename=muenchen&postalcode_startsWith=815

the results always begin with 80331, while there does exist zip codes that go 815...
is this feature not available for json, just xml?
when i look up the docs, i can see the parameters for the xml call, but for json it says: Parameters : postalcode,country ,maxRows (default = 20),callback, charset (default = UTF-

nice shades by the way.

no chance for json postalcode_startsWith, or am i missing something?

thanks for the help and thanks for this incredible service.

okay, i found the solution.
for some reason postalCodeLookupJSON doesnt work, but there is a similar function that goes postalCodeSearchJSON and that does the trick.
