I need to know the exact (more or less) point on the map corresponding to an address typed by the user. To explain better, I have a map with streets and I have to show the point corresponding to an address that the user type in a form.
Thanks again!

If you mean geocoding or converting an address to latitude, longitude, then Open Map doesn't support that but there are plenty of geocoding services out there and some of them are even free depending on how much you use it and for what purpose. Here are a couple:

Dear all, I'm here again to ask for an information. Does OpenMap support
"address matching"?
Thanks in advance,
