Testers requested for ASP.NET control
-
Ok, I've knocked up a quick ASP.NET server control to allow users to select their country. But with a twist, it uses the Geo IP database to determine the visitor's country and that's then selected for them. http://www.oobaloo.co.uk/CountryListBox/[^] It'd be great if as many people as possible can give it a go and see how they get on. I've tested it successfully from the UK, and also using an anonymous proxy to return US. -- Paul "If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation." - David Brent, from "The Office" MS Messenger: paul@oobaloo.co.uk Sonork: 100.22446
Canada works. I'm guessing it would also work from here too :) cheers, Chris Maunder

Works great from here... Just checking, I also selected Uzbekistan for grins and refreshed. It still pops up USA correctly. Now if it properly identified my ZIP code you'd be making me nervous... "My child was Inmate of the Month at Mohave County Jail" - Bumper Sticker in Bullhead City, AZ

Australia checking in. You should sell this to all those web sites that make you fill in a form. I am so sick of having to select my country. And picking Azerbaijan by mistake...

And picking Azerbaijan by mistake... Definitely agree, a friend of mine was filling out his application to Accenture the other day and noticed that he'd left it as Afghanistan. Not sure if Accenture expect many applications from Afghanistan but hey :) Thanks for giving it a test though. -- Paul "If you can keep your head when all around you have lost theirs, then you probably haven't understood the seriousness of the situation." - David Brent, from "The Office" MS Messenger: paul@oobaloo.co.uk Sonork: 100.22446
