I have been searched by the internet, however I didn't find a perfect solution, so I faith that someone already did something like this.
So my issue is, I'm using a webservice were you send the VAT number and if is valid you got the Company info. However the address received is the full address not divided by parts.
For example: Google Ireland VAT is IE6388047V
I got: Company Name: GOOGLE IRELAND LIMITED Address: 3RD FLOOR ,GORDON HOUSE ,BARROW STREET ,DUBLIN 4
So what I need is something like this: 3RD FLOOR ,GORDON HOUSE ,BARROW STREET ,DUBLIN 4 Converts this to:
Address: Ringsend Post Office, Gordon House, Barrow St
City: Dublin 4
Country: Ireland
Someone can help me and make the day? Thank you so much!
You can separate your address with array using PHP function explode(",",$address). It will separate your address after ", " and store in array...
Parsing addresses is challenging because of the many formats you will encounter, even within a single country. There are services that can parse the input and even verify whether the address exists. They usually return the address in components as well as a composed whole. Unfortunately, parsing international addresses is usually only available via a paid service. One such service is provided by smartystreets.com:
