Special Request.... ajax auto complete city... on signup page

Hi, i just wondering if you think you will add soon this function for the signup page of dolphin.... because when you make a research by city... for seeing member who are online by example... and you got over 2000 member... if you search by city... for sure you will got a lot of mispelling city name... like  ny,newyork,new york.... or montreal, mtl, montréal... so its will separate the member of the same city in 3 or 4 different searching result... so a good way to keep all member of the same city with the SAME city field entry... should be to use an ajax auto complete form for the city field.... or maybe best.... a zip code locator... so user only have to enter his zip code... and the city field and the country field will automaticly get the info.....   so i dunno if its aleready in a trac for version 6.1 or 6.2 ... or maybe this addon is already available on expertzzz....   so please inform me about that... because i absolutly need this feature before starting my dating website... i dont want to have so much mess in my member city field database...

thx

This has already been done. If you are a member of ModMySite click here:

You will need to register to see everything. Follow the instructions and things should work for you. They have a 3.2mb City file and I've checked it out and every American city i could think of was listed. Also has more than enough forign cities too. This should be what you're looking for and help you if you're willing to take the time to add it.

but its not free... its about 350$ never see a mod with higher price like that on expertzzz..... and i dont want to use the minFraud Solution...
No, it isnt 350$ that is the mod that ModMySite made. The one I'm talking about i a personal one the guy pasted on the forum. Read the forum.

ok thx... sorry i wasnt regitered.... now i see...

well it is possible to add it to the new version of dolphin?? hope it will not cause problem with the database? the script seams to be made for abledating...
It is made for both. You should make a total backup of your site, and of the database and save them. Then try to set up the ajax stuff and see how it works..

I am a registered member on MOD, but dont have time to search for it, if you want to send to me, I will go thru it for you. (Just pm me your email)

I did the same thing on askboonex.com all inputs and such are all Ajax as well.

I dont know much about it and cant really help you with it. You can send a message to the person who posted it on MMS and ask them for some advice or follow what CyberXing said :)
