No Flash at all. It is pure Javascript for the mouse over.

What do you mean with IP codes ? And for which country ?

Cheers,
The nearest I can find for the UK is this...Very similar format except the name of town is replaced with UK Post code...
Example:

areacode,x,y,latitude,longitude
AB10,392900,804900,57.135,-2.117
AB11,394500,805300,57.138,-2.092
AB12,393300,801100,57.101,-2.111
AB13,385600,801900,57.108,-2.237
AB14,383600,801100,57.101,-2.27
AB15,390000,805300,57.138,-2.164
AB16,390600,807800,57.161,-2.156
- etc -


The link is here http://www.jibble.org/ukpostcodes/

I've also attached the full list as a zip..Hope this helps...

Hi DaveLogic,

sorry for not knowing the UK very well, but are Post codes = ZIP codes ? But i am missing the city names like London, Altrinham, etc.

Yeah, the UK's Post codes are equivelant to ZIP codes..........I've searched high and low for the city names as well but with no luck except for the Airport codes..Entering just the postcode however would still work as well IMO...

Hi DaveLogic,

the current Hack provides userinformation with mouseover effect where the city name is highlighted. You information is great. It is 75% of the data i need.

I have already downloaded the GEO data for the UK and i will be able to draw a map of the UK in the near term.

But i need the city names. Without the city names i will not be able to use the current hack and i do not want to start a new version only for the UK or for any other country. I want to keep it simple which will make my life easier supporting this hack. I hope you understand this.

Regardless of this you are the second guy with really usefull information about a country.

Could you please check if you can get a list of city names and post codes ? I can write a script to combine the 2 sources to one big sql file. This would solve all our problems.

Cheers,

Here's the full list of UK postcodes with city names
http://www.brainstorm.co.uk/post-codes2.txt

Because both files are in CSV format it should be possible to merge the data with the location data???

Hey DaveLogic ? You are really quick. That's all i need. I will now try to merge these files to get one DB for the UK. Now please lay back and relax and be patient. The rest is now my work.

I'd be very interested when you get this operational for the UK :cool:.
