it's the OR statement.
(LEN(cleanZipcode) NEQ 5) OR (LEN(cleanZipcode) NEQ 9)
will ALWAYS evaluate to true because if the string is 5 characters long then
(...NEQ 9) will be true and if the string is 9 characters long then (...NEQ
5) will be true.

Subject: Strange problem (or still asleep)
Hello, i'm running the code below and i'm not getting the expected results.
i'm passing in a variable with the length of 5 so i would expect that the
errorString would not be appended, but in fact it is. The same thing happens
when i pass in a variable with the length of 9. I can't seem to figure out
why this is happening. Can anyone help? Sorry if this is way basic.

code:
script
.....
}else if((LEN(cleanZipcode) NEQ 5) OR (LEN(cleanZipcode) NEQ 9)){
errorString = ListAppend(errorString, "Please enter a valid
zipcode (too long/short)", "|");
errorFlags = ListAppend(errorFlags, "zp", "|");
.....
/script
