Invalid combinations should not even be possible. Your first dropdown
should list countries. Having selected a country, you load the second
dropdown with state/province/county as appropriate. This could all be
hardwired into the app, or, better, make an ajax call to obtain th
edata you need to load the second dropdown with, including whether it's
to be loaded with states,counties, or provinces.
