Most of the membership forms include a country list.

Urbano Alvarez is presenting ready to use country list data in several languages.

The lists are in the HTML format as:

Wow I wish I’d have had that 4 months ago. I ended up scraping this data off of another site and hacking at it for output.

@Paul,

Hacking a HTML data for such a list can ve a very annoying process I can guess.

You have a resource for the next time :).

Well, a simple search for “countries list” in Google would give such lists… And with some little work, you can have these automagically translated. I wouldn’t trust an automatic translation tool for long texts, but for simple words like language names and country names, it works like a charm… My website is automatically translated in several languages on server side thanks to an API…
