MOVED: My blog is now at http://antanova.com/blog

Code bits: Country select box

Here's something that has been burning a hole in my library for a while and I never thought to put it up here. Thankfully, now I have realised that it could be useful to my colleagues around the world (although in this version the UK is selected). It was fully revised in March 2007 from ISO 3166-1 Alpha-2 country codes. Each country's corresponding "value" property is the two-letter country code from the ISO. Use it in your code freely, but please link here if you want to share the code with others. Enjoy...

Thanks, a lower case version would be useful too.

Also people may need to use &Aring; (Å) for the Åland islands

Cheers

I agree about the lower-case version; the touble is spending the time to go through it manually or create a script to do it.

Couldn't you use CSS to do it for you? Something along the lines of text-transform:capitalize;
?
