Because

Per Issue #29201, a form that requires Country and Zip Code does not make sense, as ZIP codes are for United States addresses only. Postal Code is a more general term that is understood and applicable in many countries.

This PR

  • Changes "Zip Code" to "Postal Code" in the first sentence in the "A Little More Practice" section of the Form Validation with JavaScript lesson.

Issue
