Searching for county returns state information
When searching for a county example
http://where.yahooapis.com/geocode?county=...e=ca&appid=
the results returned are for the state not the county. However, when I use location variable as my only input
http://where.yahooapis.com/geocode?county=...e=ca&appid=
the results are for the county. Seems like this is a quirk. Can it be fixed?
Thanks...

I found the problem. I did not read the documentation correctly. There is no option for county as a variable but it would be useful to be able to lookup a county.
