HELLO ALL!

I am wondering if there is a way to change/add/include the US States in the members profile location field.  Most of my members come from the US, and all they say is United States, but would like to be able to say "California, USA" etc. 

thanks much!

IN version 7,

Just edit this file /includes/select_countries_list.asp

Remove all country you do not want and write the US States, or you may just add the US States at the top of the file.

what about city.  for instance someone may want to put "Los Angeles, CA".  is there a way to make it so the user can type their location?

thank you!

Replace the drop down box in the file register.asp that holds all the countries with a text input area.

Just use Dreamweaver to delete the select box and replace it with a text box of the same name.

It's just HTML that needs changing not the ASP.
