    <p>I have been coding around with Google Geocoding until I found out that the Geocoding API may only be used in conjunction with a Google map. That is unconvinient because I don't need to display a map. So I switched to Geonames which is awesome! </p> <p>I get the latitude and longitude of an address and add them to my database.</p> <p>The code below is Jquery for a text input where users add their city/town and an auto-complete appears presuming the city they are typing. It works great but I also want to add the latitude and longitude of their city in 2 hidden form fields for sending to the database.</p> <p>How is it possible to retrieve those coordinates from Geonames?</p> <pre><code>$(function() { function log( message ) { $( "&lt;div/&gt;" ).text( message ).prependTo( "#log" ); $( "#log" ).attr( "scrollTop", 0 ); } $( "#city" ).autocomplete({ source: function( request, response ) { $.ajax({ url: "http://ws.geonames.org/searchJSON", dataType: "jsonp", data: { featureClass: "P", style: "full", maxRows: 12, name_startsWith: request.term }, success: function( data ) { response( $.map( data.geonames, function( item ) { return { label: item.name + (item.adminName1 ? ", " + item.adminName1 : "") + ", " + item.countryName, value: item.name } })); } }); }, minLength: 2, select: function( event, ui ) { log( ui.item ? "Selected: " + ui.item.label : "Nothing selected, input was " + this.value); }, open: function() { $( this ).removeClass( "ui-corner-all" ).addClass( "ui-corner-top" ); }, close: function() { $( this ).removeClass( "ui-corner-top" ).addClass( "ui-corner-all" ); } }); }); </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
