 * Hi there, I’m trying to set up a dropdown list containing time zones that a visitor
   can use. I’ve pasted the exact content below my signature. In the selection, 
   I’m expecting to see:
 * `GMT -8:00 Pacific Time US-Canada`
 * but what I’m getting is:
 * `GMT -8`
 * Should I put quotes around each set of content between the vertical bars?

 * And even more curious: Here’s what it looks like in Salesforce:

 * Apparently the plugin stopped at the colon, because only the data AFTER the colon
   in `GMT -8:00` made it into Salesforce.

 * Ugh.
 * That bit of code was a pull request… and splits on “:” … so I can see how that
   would mean that can’t be part of the string… which is unfortunate.
 * I’ve been meaning to make that a bit easier on the eyes by adding a new format
   option, which will fix your issue.
 * I’ll release 2.5.3 shortly which will fix this (by using newlines and pipes instead
   of pipes and colons).
 * So, after you update, change your options to this, and you should be set:
 *     ```
