Preselect country in checkout flow

Hi there,

What's the proper way to preselect the country for an order inside a loop for the countries? We're trying something like this:

<select name="EcomOrderCustomerCountry" id="EcomOrderCustomerCountry" class="input-xlarge">
<!--@LoopStart(Countries)-->
  <option value="<!--@Ecom:Country.Code2-->" <!--@If(Ecom:Country.Code2==Ecom:Order.Customer.Country.Code)-->selected="selected"<!--@EndIf-->> 
    <!--@Ecom:Country.Name-->
  </option>
<!--@LoopEnd(Countries)-->
</select>

However, this does not select the country. When we output  we do get the proper value.

In the Industry Solutions set I see Ecom:Country.Code2==Server:Request.ecomordercustomercountry but ecomordercustomercountry is empty in our case.

Any suggestions? This should be supported out of the box, shouldn't it? I don't want to go the "JavaScript way" and preselect the item with some code.

Thanks,

Imar

Hi Imar,

I can see that we are using a loop like this:

<!--@LoopStart(Countries)-->
  <option value="<!--@Ecom:Country.Code2-->"
    <!--@If(Ecom:Country.Code2==Server:Request.ecomordercustomercountry)-->selected="selected"<!--@EndIf--><!--@If Not Defined(Server:Request.ecomordercustomercountry)--><!--@If(Ecom:Country.Code2==Global:Area.Culture.CountryCode)-->selected="selected"<!--@EndIf--><!--@EndIf(Server:Request.ecomordercustomercountry)-->>
     <!--@Ecom:Country.Name-->
   </option>
<!--@LoopEnd(Countries)-->

Mayby it can help you?

Best regards, Anders
