OCST State Drop down select

[lesliekirk]

Store owner is getting numerous reports from customers that they are getting errors with the State/Province field. The site ships gift baskets and I never realized that so many people did know know State Abbreviations. It looks like this field needs to be converted to a drop down select. Can I copy the code from another screen such as the ACAD screen?

Hi Leslie,

Are you referring to when the country is not United States?

Hi Leslie,

Are you referring to when the country is not United States?

No, this site only ships to the United States

By default, the Levels ReadyTheme has the state list as a select when the country is set to United States. Has the code been modified for this site?

If the country is limited to US only, why do you guys output select and a hidden field with the same name?

requested:
    <mvt:item name="countries" param="Customer_ShipCountry" />

output:

<select name="Customer_ShipCountry" id="Customer_ShipCountry" disabled="" class="input">
    <option value="" selected="">United States</option>
</select>

<input type="hidden" name="Customer_ShipCountry" value="US">

This output is controlled by the software. I believe the select is output for display consistency and the hidden input for actual form processing.
