Hi, thanks for your quick answer.
You can see my example
here<http://www.webconcept-preprod.com/demenagement/distance2.html>.
I've tried many ways, I may have used the wrong syntax, for Google doesn't
tell much about it.
In this example, I can't obtain any alert on an erratic destination address
(see if(arr!=''){...}else{alert...}). Same problem if I ask to
alert(element.status) : the answer will be 'OK' for a valid address, '' for
a wrong one instead of 'NOT_FOUND'. By the way, an erratic origin address
will generate an alert whereas an erratic one will not, I don't understand
why but perhaps my code is wrong.
Concerning the last issue, I do think it should be treated as an invalid
address because if the request is about kilometric fees on an online payment
site for instance, if the customer enters an invalid address and doesn't
verify it, he could find himself paying more. That issue didn't appear in
version 2. Also, why should "312, France" be treated as "312 France,
47200 Virazeil, France", and not "312, avenue des Champs-Elysées, Paris" for
example ? (by the way, 312 France isn't a valid street address).

Kind regards,

Benjamin
