PHP Tutorial : Country list array

Jun 17, 2009 Useful PHP

In my point of view, a very useful and common thing we need when we build for example a membership site it’s country list array. I will do it within next function then will show how to use it :

Click here to get the function

And here’s how to use it for example to generate a select (drop down) with options to list countries:

<?php
$countryList = countryArray();

print "<select name=\"countryList\">";

foreach($countryList as $simbol => $country) {

print "<option value=\"$simbol\">$country</option>\n";
}

print "</select>";
?>
