Country searches fail for countries with states/regions/provinces #257

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Do a country query for Sweden (country ID 10)
2. As http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?country_id=10 shows, there's 
a selection necessary
3. Solution: append "&as=1" to the query URL
4. This addition doesn't any harm to other countries, e.g.
http://www.geocaching.com/seek/nearest.aspx?country_id=276 works with and 
without &as=1 appended (actually, gc.com appends this automatically)

Priority set to "low" as full-country searches should be avoided anyway, for 
countries large enough to be split into states (Sweden's got more than 60k 
caches!)
