Pull down UK county list
Pull down UK county list
OS commerce provides no data for UK counties (on version 2.2rc1 at least.)
I provide here an SQL adding UK counties (Enland, Wales, Scotland & Northern Island)
There may be some counties missing as they keep changing.
By default OSC wont provide a drop down, waiting for client to put in their country, I don`t like that approach so:
I provide a mod to display the counties of the store country, if they exist, on the blank form.
I found that OSC would display county codes rather than names, this may be fine for the US but not in the UK, I`ve included a Workaround, there may be a better way if
someone knows OSC better.
I also include a simple mod I found to ensure country is pre-selected to the store country.
After starting this I found there is already a mod for counties, but this is US based and seems rather OTT, I think UK users will find this quite sufficient.
