I've added a few companies to the Garden Watchdog.
When I put in the City, I have to also add a comma and the two letter state abbreviation or it won't appear in the final address in the GW company page. This even though there is a state/province field that I also fill out. An example of this is J & J Aquatic Tranzplant Nursery, LLC.
Also, I put a post office box in the street address field for Scott Brothers Nursery, and the Post Office box did not appear in the address in the GW company page. I somehow got the post office box number in another company's address, so I guess I should put it in a different field than the "street address" field.
Thanks, Dave, for a terrific site!

Adding Companies to Garden Watchdog, Address Glitch
Dave, I just tested a new entry and found the same problems ewald's describing. (ewald, I'm guessing you typed out the state name, rather than using a two-letter abbreviation.)
Dave, can you make the state field a drop-down box like the country field is? I hadn't thought about it before now, but the pull-down list of states/provinces only shows up when I go in and edit an entry.
We also need to remove the street address input field if we're not going to show it. (It's been a "problem child" field from the get-go :o)
Good feedback. I have changed the add screen to make the state a pulldown (and also corrected the 6 or 7 entries that had a wrong state).
Additionally, I removed the "Street Address" field. (ahhhh!)
