Cannot get this to work

I've done this before and it worked fine but now...

I have two tables with corresponding recordsets

The Parent is countries (Only two The US and the UK)
The Child is regions (States for the US and counties for the UK

I get the Countries to display OK but the regions remain blank.

This is the code for the page. Could someone cast their eye over it and tell me where I'm going wrong please?

php:
<?php error_reporting(E_ALL);

ini_set('display_errors''1');?>
<?php 
require_once('Connections/localhost.php'); ?>
<?php
if (!function_exists("GetSQLValueString")) {
function 
GetSQLValueString($theValue$theType$theDefinedValue ""$theNotDefinedValue ""
{
  if (
PHP_VERSION 6) {
    
$theValue get_magic_quotes_gpc() ? stripslashes($theValue) : $theValue;
  }

  
$theValue function_exists("mysql_real_escape_string") ? mysql_real_escape_string($theValue) : mysql_escape_string($theValue);

  switch (
$theType) {
    case 
"text":
      
$theValue = ($theValue != "") ? "'" $theValue "'" "NULL";
      break;    
    case

    case 
"int":

      break;

      break;
    case 
"defined":

      break;

This is the SQL

--
-- Table structure for table `country`
--

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `country` (
`countryID` varchar(30) NOT NULL,
`countryName` varchar(30) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (`countryID`)
) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=latin1;

--
-- Table structure for table `regions`
--

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS `regions` (

`regionName` varchar(128) NOT NULL,
