I don\’t know if this is the error you have, but when I loaded the checkout/onepage page, I was getting the same problem with the State dropdown.  I had a firebug error that said countryRegions had not been defined.  I looked in onepage.phtml in the new version, and this line that I had in the old onepage.phtml was missing:

<script type=\"text/javascript\">countryRegions = <?php echo $this->helper(\'directory\')->getRegionJson() ?></script>

It goes at the top with these lines:

<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"<?php echo $this->getJsUrl(\'varien/accordion.js\') ?>\"></script>
<script type=\"text/javascript\" src=\"<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl(\'js/opcheckout.js\') ?>\"></script>
<script type=\"text/javascript\">countryRegions = <?php echo $this->helper(\'directory\')->getRegionJson() ?></script>

That might have been something I manually did before or who knows, but adding that line in my custom template fixed it for me.

I had to modify the code a bit to work on mine. Try this one if the above does not work.

<script type="text/javascript"> countryRegions = <?php echo $this->helper('directory')->getRegionJson() ?></script>

Your second code fixed my problem too. (Version 1.7)

Thanks

I have a 1.6 template and working with magento 1.7
<script type="text/javascript"> countryRegions = <?php echo $this->helper('directory')->getRegionJson() ?></script>

this one worked perfectly!!!

Thankyou so so so so so much Chris Czyzewicz and the rest of you....I had the same problem and is now fixed...yippeeeeee!!

When Magento Store is upgraded to latest 1.7 Version then sometimes states drop down while checkout in not show.

First of all check your onepage.phtml of new version then compare this with the same file of older version then you will find that following code lines are missing.

Simply paste above mentioned lines in top of onepage.phtml of newer version. It comes like:

Solution:
Add this code at the top of the file: /app/design/frontend/base/default/template/ checkout/onepage.phtml

<div class="page-title">
<h1><?php echo $this->__('Checkout') ?></h1>
</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $this->getJsUrl('varien/accordion.js') ?>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('js/opcheckout.js') ?>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">countryRegions = <?php echo $this->helper('directory')->getRegionJson() ?></script>

Now refresh your magento checkout page, you can see state dropdown.

Thanks & Good Luck !!

Got this somewhere else but racked my brain for days on this…

I needed to put together a few solutions to make my 1.7.0.2 work.

The account create was not working with either showing the drop down or populating the dropdown with the states.

I first needed to change the onepage.phtml from

</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $this->getJsUrl('varien/accordion.js') ?>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('js/opcheckout.js') ?>"></script>

to:

</div>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $this->getJsUrl('varien/accordion.js') ?>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="<?php echo $this->getSkinUrl('js/opcheckout.js') ?>"></script>
<script type="text/javascript"> countryRegions = <?php echo $this->helper('directory')->getRegionJson() ?></script>

Some posts suggest you remove the style="display:none;" from the register.phtml and I only removed the first one in the state section...heres my code

<div class="field">
<label for="region_id" class="required"><em>*</em><?php echo $this->__('State/Province') ?></label>
<div class="input-box">
<select id="region_id" name="region_id" title="<?php echo $this->__('State/Province') ?>” class="validate-select">
<option value=""><?php echo $this->__('Please select region, state or province') ?></option>
</select>
<script type="text/javascript">
//<![CDATA[
$(’region_id’).setAttribute(’defaultValue’, “<?php echo $this->getFormData()->getRegionId() ?>");
//]]>
</script>
<input type="text" id="region" name="region" value="<?php echo $this->escapeHtml($this->getRegion()) ?>” title="<?php echo $this->__('State/Province') ?>” class="input-text <?php echo $this->helper('customer/address')->getAttributeValidationClass('region') ?>” style="display:none;" />
</div>
</div>

Then I needed to modify this

app\code\core\Mage\Customer\Block\Form\Register.php

lines 41-45 changed from

protected function _prepareLayout()
{
$this->getLayout()->getBlock(’head’)->setTitle(Mage::helper(’customer’)->__(’Create New Customer Account’));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
}

to

protected function _prepareLayout()
{
$this->setShowAddressFields(true);
$this->getLayout()->getBlock(’head’)->setTitle(Mage::helper(’customer’)->__(’Create New Customer Account’));
return parent::_prepareLayout();
}

Hope this helps!  My template is not compatible with 1.7 so I had to do some changes.

I was having the same problem, adding the code

Now i get the dropdown but just for some countries, not all of them. Any clues?

Solution posted by Chris Czyzewicz works perfect (Magento 1.7.0.2) I just wanted to add my 2 bits of thanks. Thanks!! It worked and love the knowledge of the forums. I would be dead in the water without this forum and folks like Chris along with everyone else in the community..

I have this problem but it only happens on firefox.

Chrome and IE works. On firefox the dropdown for regions doesn’t show up.
