code problem and i have no clue

[menorcarob]

hi all

 

i am not very good with php, i understand some of how it works and i am trying to learn more, but it taking a long time, age thing i guess. i have bought a script after trying for months to learn to use NOF 10 to create a site, the script is good but the support is pretty grim and very slow.

the problem i have is that the form that people register on and others such as the search form, and the listing submission form all have the dropdown option of country what i need to do is make the country always "spain" and not show the option on the form, the author of the script suggested this...........

 

"Well, hmmm ... how about if you convert them into hidden fields and put

the default value there. Then you can hide these fields, but actually

it will still be there when the form is submitted.

 

Please try that."

 

simples eh, not for me, i have tried but i am getting nowhere, could you please look at the script and tell me where i should edit it to remove the country from view with the default of spain option on the form, many thanks in advance

here is the script........

<tr>

<td><font class="{$warning_member_country}"><b>Country</b></font> <font class="normal_12_red">*</font></td>

<td><b>:</b></td>

<td>

<select name="member_country" class="textbox" style="width:350px">

{section name=var loop=$member_country}

<option value="{$member_country_id[var]}" {if $member_country_id[var] == $cmember_country} selected {/if}>{$member_country_name[var]}</option>

{/section}

</select>

{php} $_SESSION['cmember_country_warn'] = ''; {/php}

</td>

</tr>

Maybe you need to replace

<select name="member_country" class="textbox" style="width:350px">
{section name=var loop=$member_country}
<option value="{$member_country_id[var]}" {if $member_country_id[var] == $cmember_country} selected {/if}>{$member_country_name[var]}</option>
{/section}
</select>

 

With

<input type="hidden" name="member_country" value="Spain">

 

Spain may need to be changed to whatever the value is for spain

</tr>
