When validating an address, I get this error:

ex = {"Error Loading XML:  The following tags were not closed: AddressValidateRequest, Address, Address1.\r\n"}

or I get another error saying the address cannot be found. Is there a better way to validate this address?

Here is my URL:

http://production.shippingapis.com/ShippingAPI.dll?API=Verify&XML=<AddressValidateRequest USERID="402JMAWE3481"><Address ID="1"><Address1>123 Main St</Address1><Address2></Address2><City>Watertown</City><State>MA</State><Zip5>02472</Zip5><Zip4></Zip4></Address></AddressValidateRequest>

    According what I see on the error description, the problem could be that you need to remove \r\n from the xml before adding it to the url. Don’t forget also to url encode it.
