--- Comment #35 from John A. Bilicki III <jab_creations at yahoo.com> ---
We are moving to use optgroup for the states/provinces of each country we provide services for and simply removing class="hidden" from the appropriate optgroup.

 - Blink 88 works.
 - Gecko 56 works.
 - Presto 12.5 fails.
 - Trident 18 works.
 - WebKit 14.0 fails.

Since Presto can't support some reasonably modern syntax we've unofficially dropped support for Opera.

We simply don't have enough people or time to spend adding yet another script to fix browser bugs, especially ones from the mid-2000s. We'd literally have to scan all of the optgroup elements and move them back and forth between the select elements (yes, plural) and a hidden container. Additionally unlike other systems the forms with the select elements only need to be filled out once in many scenarios further reducing the need to spend more time on scripting for bugs. Some of our users will encounter this nonetheless and we'd appreciate a fix for it.
