[mkgmap-dev] Searching for postal_code

Mon Jun 13 14:33:01 BST 2011

Hi Martin,

you need to use the locator branch (I am sure your are doing so).

The last line in your style rules contains an error in the set 
(mkgmap:postcode instead of mkgmap:postalcode):
mkgmap:postal_code!=* & mkgmap:postcode=* { set 
mkgmap:postal_code='${mkgmap:postcode}' }

What are you searching for? POIs? Street names? Which search fields are 
you filling? There might be some problems left with searching for zip 
codes. It's not very well tested.
