 Paulo Diovani Goncalves - 2012-10-15 13:25:44 The package uses a non-standard CEP checking on Correios by reading the HTML generated by the website service.
This may easily break the package if/when Correios change its layout and/or infringe legal terms.
To add free CEP consulting on a website, the proper way is using the method listed on http://www.correios.com.br/servicos/cep/cep_coloque.cfm.
To add an internal CEP consulting (not acessing Corrios website) the only way is by using the e-DNE database (http://www.correios.com.br/produtosaz/produto.cfm?id=C33CF3D4-5056-9163-89DFF3F2A0E8DA5F).

But users can do mistakes:
- How to deal with a wrong CEP number ( do not exists, incorrect lenght, letters (A-Z)).
- How to deal with different ways to write it (00.000-000,00000-000).
And.. People can use it for commercial purposes?
Cheers

You can change the code whenever you want to fit the Correios HTML.

Not a problem to implement validation:
I've posted a different approach with a null return valu on http://pastebin.com/LXc6fE3x
- How to deal with different ways to write it (00.000-000,00000-000).
Answer: Correios do that!
