Hi Thad, Thanks for your reply. In your suggestion I will have to type all the countries and their codes myself, while I was hoping I could do it in a more automated way, like I could do if I could use the java.util.Locale package (method static String[] getISOCountries() for example) which is not supported by GWT. But it seems I can't do anything simpler than what you suggest.
