Active Countries
for osCommerce Online Merchant v2.2
Active Countries contribution offers control of the countries table through the osc admin cpanel. In addition the contribution automatically filters the associated states (when present) of the selected country. This approach eliminates selection difficulties visitors experience during the registration process and has no active script dependencies. Multiple modifications are done on the catalog side, to address the 4 areas a user can alter the country information. Those are in the create account, address book change, payment address and shipping address.
If only one country is enabled the country drop-down list is replaced by simple text while the requirement asterisk is removed.

Just a revised readme for this great contribution by enigma. The files are listed alphabetically and a few minor things were changed- but it helped me after re-organizing everything and highlighting the steps.
If you want to save a little time- download this revised readme.

The original re-directs caused some problems with this contrib in the checkout_shipping_address.php and
checkout_payment_address.php pages. To fix this problem, follow the instructions in the attached file.
Bug Fixes/Updates v1.01:
- Fix when a single country is enabled. Missing code. Replaced function tep_get_country_active_list
- Fix when the customer sets all fields in the form and changes country (when changes it last) could insert the customer entry in the dbase although the customer haven’t confirmed his account details.
The sql file was missing I reupload the package with the countries_custom.sql file
