Canadians: When entering a Postal Code into a web form, does it usually care if the letters are capitals?
I am from the US, but I am writing a web form for Canadian users. When I am checking that their Postal Code is in the correct format, should I force them to use capitals (is that the standard?), or do people typically use lower-case letters (in which case I should allow both)? Thanks! Hmm. Why no space? Do the forms usually take it with or without the space? Thanks again!

- it usually doesnt matter, as long as you type in the correct postal code. because when i sign up for anything and i type it in lowercase, it doesn't matter.
- *EDIT** Uhm, lots of the forms i fill in want no space. And i know when i send mail for work i dont use a space.. Doesnt matter. I prefer writing in the format: v8p0s4 Just cause i find it easier to read than V8P0S4. Usualy a good thing to do is not allow a space (v8p 0s4 = bad) thats just what i think tho :) i would allow both tho if i were you (but dont let them use a space) Cheers
