Using jQuery for JSON web service

I'm trying to use geopages.org api to populate a city input field onblur of my zip code input field. I don't know what the problem is with my script.

<script>

$("#zip").blur(function() {
var city = $("#city");
var zip = $("#zip");

$.getJSON("http://www.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON?postalcode=" + zip.val + "&country=US&username=myusername?", function(json){
 data = json.postalcodes[0].placeName;
 city.val(text);                    
});
}
});

</script>

I'm pretty sure it's a syntax error but my jQuery is not that good so I don't know where my issue is.

You have one more } than needed, try this:

$("#zip").blur(function() {
var city = $("#city");
var zip = $("#zip");

$.getJSON("http://www.geonames.org/postalCodeLookupJSON?postalcode=" + zip.val + "&country=US&username=myusername?", function(json){
 data = json.postalcodes[0].placeName;
 city.val(text);                    
});
});
