[thelist] international friendly form

[Brown, Robert]

The problems with this is, Disney is giving precedence to two countries,
then Disney is saying all of you foreigners go use that bucket. 
(why is 'its a small world' going through my head?)

The interface has to be consolidated, to not confuse, or give precedence

I liked the way Go.com (through Disney) broke down their form.

https://register.go.com/disney/register

They have a section for Americans (State and Zip Code), Canadians (Province
and Postal Code) and another for International (with text boxes for
generic).

I've implemented the same system on several forms I've worked with lately.
Prevents a lot of problems.  Canadians are so touchy about that sort of
thing - especially when their postal codes are rejected through JavaScript.
;)

I have a form for User's contact information that must accomodate many
countries and be context sensitive, i.e. State for U.S., Province for
Canada. Has anyone done it well or seen it done well?
