Hi.

I was wandering whether anyone knew how i can use php to retrieve info from a postal code (probably mainly in the UK) so that when a person enters the post code it comes up with the address or I can do other things with the info. Is there a php class that can do this? Would I need to use a database of postal info? If so are there any (preferably free) ones?

Thanks everyone.

The Royal Mail, I don't think will stop charging for the service. I wish there was a decent world wide database that was free to use.

Many websites out there use some kind of database. The website www.faxyourmp.co.uk uses one, and since they don't make any money from this (well I can't see how they can) then will they be paying for a post code database?
