+If your table has this format:
+<verbatim>
+| *Country* |
+| |
+| Afghanistan |
+| Aland Islands |
+| Albania |
+| Algeria |
+| American Samoa |
+| Andorra |
+</verbatim>
+
+You need to skip the header row. Use this search:
+<verbatim>
+<select>
+%SEARCH{
+"^\|[^\*\|]*\|"
+topic="CountryList"
+type="regex"
+multiple="on"
+nosearch="on"
+nototal="on"
+format="<option>$pattern(^\| *(.*?) *\|.*)</option>"
+}%
+</select>
+</verbatim>
+
+Which renders as:
+
+<select>
+%SEARCH{
+"^\|[^\*\|]*\|"
+topic="CountryList"
+type="regex"
+multiple="on"
+nosearch="on"
+nototal="on"
