   Hi,
   Is it possible to manually edit the countries code within view-functions.php file so the countries can be within optgroup tags for the different continents. If so can you give me a couple of pointers on how to do it?
   Thanks,
   Phil

   The code for displaying the country dropdown is located around line 1430 - 1435 in your "includes/view-functions.php" file.

   You should find this code:

   <div id="li_{$element->id}_div_6" class="right">
   			<select class="element select medium" id="element_{$element->id}_6" name="element_{$element->id}_6">
   			{$country_markup}
   			</select>
   		<label for="element_{$element->id}_6">{$lang['address_country']}</label>
   	</div>

   You can replace "{$country_markup}" line with the HTML tag for the dropdown which includes the optgroup tag.

   Thanks yuniar,
   The query I had really was if the id numbers in the country list are crucial to the working of machform and how it would affect (if at all) how you set a selected country when making up a form, for example...

   $country[11]['label'] = "Bahrain";
   $country[12]['label'] = "Bangladesh";
   $country[13]['label'] = "Barbados";

   and...

   $country[11]['value'] = "Bahrain";
   $country[12]['value'] = "Bangladesh";
   $country[13]['value'] = "Barbados";

   So I can replace all this with standard option tags where {$country_markup} was without breaking machform, yes?

   Yes, you can replace it with standard tags, replacing the {$country_markup}
   It won't break your machform.
