Address Search

You can access this API address service via the AGSearch object. Use AGSearch.search() to convert a string address into search result that contains top 20 matched result. This method takes as parameters a string address to convert, and a callback function to execute upon retrieval of the address. In this example, we search addresses, add a marker at that points.
