				<title>Country search</title>
				<description><![CDATA[ When I perform the following query to the web service 

http://ws.geonames.org/search?q=UK&maxRows=1&fcode=pcli&fcode=pcl&style=full

It returns the United Kingdom. I have a local copy of the database when sql query would I have to execute to get the same result?

Thanks

				<description><![CDATA[ Hi Robby

The geonames search is not database driven. We don't use SQL for the search, we use a lucene full text search.

Cheers

				<description><![CDATA[ hello Marc,

I want to give the suggestions for the city that are entered by my site users. What can be the better way? should I use the webservice provided by geonames or should I dumb the DB locally and search into that?


Thanks]]></description>
