added postal code field validation for the form validate plugin (for us canadians)

[dezwald]

i have created a 2 validation functions to be added to the additional-methods validation plugin script

these function validate postal code and zip code fields

one validates both postal code and zip code in a field

and the other one just validates postal code

jQuery.validator.addMethod("postalzip", function(value, element) {

return this.optional(element)

/\d{5}(-\d{4})?$)|([ABCEGHJKLMNPRSTVXY]{1}\d{1}[A-Z]{1} *\d{1}[A-Z]{1}\d{1}$/.test(value);

}, "Your ZIP-code must be in the range 902xx-xxxx to 905-xx-xxxx OR your POSTAL CODE must be in the formart of A9A-9A9 or A9A9A9");

jQuery.validator.addMethod("postalcode", function(value, element) {

return this.optional(element)

/[ABCEGHJKLMNPRSTVXY]{1}\d{1}[A-Z]{1} *\d{1}[A-Z]{1}\d{1}$/.test(value);

}, "Your POSTAL CODE must be in the formart of A9A-9A9 or A9A9A9");

added 2 postal code field validation functions to the additional-methods.js (one checks for a valid postal code or zip code and the other function checks for just a valid postal code)
