What is the address of Lincoln Financial Field?

In creating an address form on a website, how do the experiences compare if a) each field is separated (i.e. one field for street, one field for city, etc.) or b) if there is one larger field box where the user writes the address any way they wish?

• The information written in the address does not need to be separated for the purpose of a database, it will simply be added to a digital document.

• Answer:

  Some advantages of using separate inputs for each line: Convention. Most websites do this. Users will be used too it. Autocorrect. If you keep your form similar to other address forms, any user with autocorrect can have the browser fill in the form for them. (Not filling in a form is the ultimate experience!) Furthermore, in many browsers, autocorrect doesn't work in <textarea> -- only <input> -- another reason to consider single lines. Validation. This is easier with single fields. Validation can be a pain but it can actually save more hassle down the line if the address is wrong!
