Will this form be submitted each time you select a country or do you want changes on the fly?

This will do it on a submission form.

PHP Code:


			
$country = $_POST['countries'];

<input type="submit" value="submit">

If your doing it on the fly without a submission, you're going to need ajax.

Here's something like what you want.
