I am creating a webpage and would like to have it so that when a street address is entered the program verifies that the street address exists. I was wondering if anyone could recommend a way that this would be possible? Maybe an API or an example someone has done before? I'm just not sure how to go about doing this task and would like to get opinions on a starting point if its possible.

I can't really seem to find anything publicly available. I'm just looking for something that will be able to take my alerts coming in via email or webhook and just automatically place the trade for me on mt4. Pointing me in the right direction or if anyone has worked on a project like this before and has some code I would really appreciate it.
My web programmer is having a hard time accomplishing a request. My guess is I'm not framing the question correctly since I'm not a programmer.
What I know about our website configuration:
The site is running on windows server 2008 IIS 7.5 using ASP.
what I don't know: I don't know if URL rewrite extension is installed.
What I'm trying to do:
vanitysub.domain.com will point to actualsub.domain.com with query string variables for Google Analytics campaign tagging appended to actualsub.domain.com
The programmer was not able to do this. I received an email with the following. "I think it has to do with the aliases I’m trying to redirect. They are both bound to the same site."
Potentially useful information:
Currently if you type in the vanitysub.domain.com it renders the correct site but the URL stays vanitysub.domain.com.
Side note: This is a Google analytics issue as well because our site has over 15 different subdomains so I have configured GA to prepend the sub.domain.com to the URI. With the current scenario this generates two separate lines in my pageview report. One for vanitysub and one for actual sub.
Can someone help me provide instruction for how to achieve "what I'm trying to do" both without the rewrite extension and with it? The programmer does not have time to research it. I'm not a programmer but know enough to know I can be dangerous(i.e. it can be done) so I need your help.
Thank you!
We were able to follow the steps outlined in a similar post with some modifications since this was only one domain and the tagging was fixed. IIS7 URL Rewrite multiple domains to a single domain including google analytics referral code
I have great luck using a combination of Google (and usually StackOverflow) to locate help with errors in software. But I'm wondering if there's a better way. How about tagging all errors with a unique ID?
This is just a suggestion, hopefully someone will take this in an even better direction. As a starting point I see errors registered the way we register web sites. Maybe they are web sites. Each error would have a URL. And that URL would have an associated abbreviated version for cases where we want to reference the error but want to save space.
The app developer would be under no obligation to provide anything at the error URL location. That would be optional but nice. Maybe the URLs would all be based on a global domain like wikipedia where anyone can contribute info. My main goal though is just to tag errors with something to make web searched more effective when I'm looking for help.
i have seen some pages that display your current location very accurately and dont seem to be doing it thorough your IP since i tried by using a proxy from another country and they still display my actual location. Is there anyway to get the user location other than by the IP? and if so, is it possible to bypass that so webmasters dont see my actual location?
Thank you.
Read about Geolocation
http://diveintohtml5.info/geolocation.html
Sample page: http://html5demos.com/geo
proxies of this type are supposed to deliver a web experience where that you're location is not shared with anyone but in some cases the actual online proxy- who wouldn't ever use this data. All I can recommend, is a site called hidemyass(dot).com
I found that it tends to use IP address based in the United Kingdom, but that could be based on your own geographical location.
I log all visits to detect bots. Got sometimes visit with ip from another country and user agent like "Java/1.6.0_32". Is it probably a bot?
It's definately not one of the major browsers. It's probably a screen-scraper - you could probably take it as a compliment that somebody finds the content provided by your site to be useful.
"You could probably take it as a compliment that somebody finds the content provided by your site to be useful..."
You might be right, but I`m not 100% sure.
An unrecognized bot could be trying to steal you content, attempting to spam links or scanning for vulnerabilities...
I've checked Botopedia.org and found no reference for this user-agent.
Might be fine, but it seems fishy to me.
