I've just successfully changed how my drop down works in the 'Change Shipping Address' page, by only allowing 13 countries from the full list to appear.

I have a problem though when changing the address with the 'State' section. When I select a country, sometimes it allows me to go straight through without a specific state to that country, but other times if it doesnt recognise the state it brings up an error to chose a state from the pull down menu, but there nothing in there.

I would rather that the state is left up to the client to enter, rather than it being safe guarded by a certain list.

I had a look around and found what i think im looking for in 'Zones', so to allow the country selected to be not affected by the state, do I just delete all those zones from that area, and if i do will it affect any other country select lists?

cheers
