add state & country to geolocation search form

Hi Tim,

In the sample_search.php form, one of the example included with the Geocoder, you will find this code on 12:

  if (!array_key_exists('fromAddress', $_REQUEST)) { $_REQUEST['fromAddress'] = '10001'; }      // this is the default address/postalcode if none entered

change to this:

  if (!array_key_exists('fromAddress', $_REQUEST)) { $_REQUEST['fromAddress'] = ' Queensland Australia'; }      // this is the default address/postalcode if none entered

This will add "Queensland Australia" by default and then the user can add the city.

Also, to get more accurate region specific results, uncomment and set the region on line 20 in the geocoder.php file:

// Google's Geocoding API typically does a good job of guessing what region you
// want results from when there are ambiguities in the search. If necessary, you
// can supply this optional "region" parameter to influence the choices made.
// See: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/geocoding/#RegionCodes
$GLOBALS['GEOCODER_REGION'] = 'au'; // two-letter ccTLD, eg: us, uk, ref: http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/basics.html#Region

Hope this helps!

Hi Tim, 

How about this? 

if (@$_REQUEST['fromAddress']) { $_REQUEST['fromAddress'] .= ", Queensland, Australia"; }

Let me know if that works for you.

That's looking good Dave - thanks!
