Re:Best/fastest way to search geonames table (mysql query)

Hiren — GMT

Hello All I want to take the city name from my site user and want to give the suggestions to them that there are these many cities of this name. Site user will select on the base of the suggestions. To achieve this, what can be the proper way? Should I call the geonames webservices with full text search? I want to search the city for the entire world? Or should I use the DB? If the DB is proper then from where I can get the dump for same? Kindly help me out. Thanks

Hello Marc, I need to verify the postal code added by my site user. Is there any webservice provided by geonames? Is geonames providing the data of the postal code for the entire world? If geonames are providing the data of the postal code for the entire world then i can store it in my db and search in that. Kindly provide your help. Thanks
