I recently spent a ridiculous amount of time trying to figure out how to deal with this problem in autocomplete inputs...I did not find a solution I was particularly happy with. twitter.com/aptaube/status

I would be curious to hear more about the problem you were working on and why it was hard

I had a form w/ fields (street addy, city, state) using Google Autocomplete API + Google Places API. The APIs do not always return the same type of address information, plus there's a big difference between how ppl define where they live and how govt/corp define.

Ohh, I see. I haven't used the Google Places API before (I was thinking of using it for an idea I had) but I might look into alternatives now. Maybe developer.foursquare.com is better
