Couple of Newbie Zip Code Questions

[MikeM79]

I just turned on the zip code feature. Very cool.

I would like to make the zip code a mandatory field when a new ad is posted. This would eliminate lots of moaning among my members (car guys, so distance really matters with stuff like cars, engines, etc.).

However, we have some Canadian and other foreign members as well. How can I set it up so that a user has to input something into the zip code field, either a valid 5 digit zip or the word "foreign" (for example). Presumably (dangerous word), when the software encounters "foreign" instead of a number it will know how to error trap that non-numeric input?

Thanks.

You should be able to enter non numeric zipcodes if your using the latest software and zipcode is a required field.
