Checking this one out now, I think this is perfect (http:// code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places- autocomplete.html). It can get most of the places that I tried. Thanks! :) But how should I tackle the places that are not yet searchable or places not yet in places? I tried the marker to and get the location (lat, lng) of a not-yet-in- places place and I think that would work. You've mentioned that it's forbidden unless I show it with a map and I think I'd be doing that for places not yet in google's places so do you think I can do that, I mean, save the lat,lng of those certain places?
