CCS has an Input Validation rule for 5-digit US Zipcodes:
^\d{5}$
However, many users use the 'extended' 9-digit zipcodes now.
Can anyone advise how to re-write the Input Validation to accept BOTH 5-digit and 9-digit codes pls?
Later, I'll have to tackle how to validate non-US codes as well - but that's for another day!

^\d{5}-\d{4}|\d{5}|[A-Z]\d[A-Z] \d[A-Z]\d$

That's great, thanks Walter. One of these days, I'll have to do some study on regex expressions, but at the moment they're hieroglyphics to me!

Max,
http://regexlib.com
has many many examples and a good search function as well.
It even has a regex tester.
Saves one a lot of time.
