[FX.php List] [Off, I think] Address field names and tricks

[Gjermund Gusland Thorsen]

This should be the the standard, as of off the top of my head

name
address
zip
town
areaCounty
country
phonenumber
direct
cellularphone
fax
epost
webaddress

The only thing in the addresspart that really changes from country to
country is the location of zip vs town, either it's <<zip>> <<town>>
or <<town>>, <<zip>>

That said, sometimes there are several lines of address, but that only
calls for parsing, so I find it simpler to work with and less
headaches to use textarea as form object type.
