title: HTML define what selection option is active
body: <p>I have a select box with the following (it has been shortened):</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;select id="viewSelector" name="when" style="width:92%;"&gt;
      &lt;option value="USA"&gt;USA&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option value="Australia"&gt;Australia&lt;/option&gt;
      &lt;option value="Germany"&gt;Germany&lt;/option&gt;
  &lt;/select&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If the user logs into the control panel and wants to change his country, he gets presented with this form. My problem is that everytime USA is the default and I can not change this depending on the users country. For example, the user lives in Australia. He wants to change his country to USA and goes to this page. I want the country that is displayed to be Australia. Let me know if this makes sense.</p>
