// I just threw this together real quick to give a general idea of how it could be used
define('StatesText',1);
define('StatesSelect',2);
define('StatesRadio',3);
// insert the array of states here... i'm not going to repost it for space sake
function displayStates($format = StatesText){
global $states;
foreach ($states as $abbr => $stateName){
switch ($format){
case StatesText: // insert state as text only not in a form input
echo "$abbr - $stateName<br>";
break;
case StatesSelect: // insert states as select options
echo "<option value=\"$abbr\">$stateName</option>";
break;
case StatesRadio: // insert states as radio input type
echo "<input type=\"radio\" name=\"states\" value=\"$abbr\"> $stateName";
break;
}
}
}
I know there have been plenty of times when I need to create a state/province drop-down for a form (although not with PHP).
