I almost did it like that, but I wasn't sure which way to go. I haven't actually gotten to the point where I can test the data received from a form.

I'm curious, will the way that I did it return a number value for the selected state, and the way you did return the Abbreviation?

If so I'm going to change it to your way since it wouldn't make much since to me if I just get a numerical value back.

Yes, the first part is the value returned when you select something, the second is the one that user sees when the select box is being displayed.

Just noticed your addition of US territories - Nice!
