GetDefaultCountry

Object and Type

Object  : FCApplication

Type     : Method

Prototype

Public Function GetDefaultCountry() As String

Description

This method returns the name of the default country. The default country is defined by the is_default flag on the country table. The country table is cached in the FCApplication object, so this method does not cause a database round-trip.

Returns

A string containing the name of the default country. If a country has not been set as the default, an empty string will be returned.

Example

The following example builds a drop-down list of countries. The default country is selected.

JavaScript:

<SELECT NAME="Country">
<%
var defCountry = FCApp.GetDefaultCountry();
var CountryList = FCApp.GetCountryList();
while (! CountryList.EOF) { %>
  <option
  <% if (CountryList("name") == defCountry) { %>
  selected = true <% } %> >
  <%=CountryList("name")%>
  <% CountryList.MoveNext; %>
  </option>
<% } %>
</SELECT>
