limiting google maps autocomplete to UK address only

Question

I've been looking at the example on:

http://code.google.com/apis/maps/documentation/javascript/examples/places-autocomplete.html

and have decided to incorporate it into my site.

Is it possible to limit the addresses to UK addresses only?

Try this:

var input = document.getElementById('searchTextField');
var options = {
   types: ['(cities)'],
   componentRestrictions: {country: 'tr'}//Turkey only
};
var autocomplete = new google.maps.places.Autocomplete(input,options);
