display default country

[egreenplace]

Is there any way when a customer checks out that the country section can be defaulted to the United States?

What's the country section during checkout ?

[egreenplace]

The drop down menu of countries in the shipping address section when the customer checks out. I want to default it to the united states instead of Afghanistan.

If you are using the GWT based one page checkout, you have the source code which you can modify and recompile: http://www.konakart.com/onepagecheckoutfaq.php

Thanks for your response, but we are not using GWT...any more ideas?

[pete]

That's even more simple then. You have direct access to the JSP.

I found 3 JSP pages and I tried various ways but none worked... Can you please tell me how to change the select tag to default the country to U.S.A? Thanks!

Hello Folks

I struggled with this a bit trying to follow some of the helps listed in this forum to set a default country. The easiest solution I found is to edit the country name in the Locations/Taxes in the KonaKartAdmin and add a ' ' space in front of the name and it will move that country to the top. Easy, easy.
