LOL, unfortunately true. At very least I'm glad they're using plain old HTML rather than Flash or some other nonsense.

That is really useful! :)
Maybe here in Brazil we could also use this kind of web services hehe :)

Haha, I would just be happy if Brazilian web forms stopped asking people in other countries for a valid CEP! I can't tell you how many times I've had to Google for the format to defeat crappy form validation.

hahaha yeah, that is true! :)
But i think that is some kind of global issue, i can't remember how many times i had to find myself a zip code as well hehe

Tanto más rápido que usando el sitio, gracias Norman! :-)

Al final lo actualizaron y la interfaz web vuelve a ser fácil. Me di cuenta porque el código dejó de andar, bienvenida la renovación!

Excelente - en un mundo ideal no existirían estos gists. :)
