They may have some guidelines | for addresses | in international mail that will help. However, if you're thinking | international, Japan doesn't use a street name in addresses, although | the Japanese post office's English literature talks about street | addresses and street numbers as if they do. | | Don't try to be too rigid about address forms. Three lines, | for instance, | is not enough. Numbers may came both before and after the smallest | non-numeric unit, whatever that is. If you insist on drop-downs for | things like "Rd.", leave an empty or "NONE" entry. | | Four simple blank lines might not even be such a bad idea. | | Just my JPY 2. | | -- | Joel Rees <joel@alpsgiken.gr.jp> | http://www.alpsgiken.co.jp | | | -- | PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) | To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php |
