django countries dropdown default

Question

I am using Django ModelForms. I have a dropdown selector that allows users to select the country. The country is part of the booking model and is defined using django_countries

Answer 1

According to here:

http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-countries/1.0.1

"CountryField is based on Django's CharField, providing choices corresponding to the official ISO 3166-1 list of countries (with a default max_length of 2)"

And the complete list of the CountryField here:

http://djangosnippets.org/snippets/1476/

Can you try this and see if it works?

booking = BookingForm(initial={'country': 'GB'})
