Shipping Perishable Goods and UPS Prefixes

[myfullhouse]

I could really use the insight on figuring out this shipping issue. If someone could please point me in the right direction to tie all of this together it would be great. I’m working with a client who ships perishable goods and all items have to arrive within 3 business days of shipping using UPS. To do this I created a web app called Zip Code Ranges with a field called Zip Prefix, which is a list of UPS’s 3 digit zip code prefixes from their shipping department {module_webapps,24209,a}. I would like to slice the number prefix from the #shippingPostcode input field, compare them and if it matches a prefix from the ranges web app then remove UPS Ground from the #ShippingOptions drop down list.  I’ve tried to tinker with this to the point of confusing myself since I’m not great at jQuery anyway. Thanks in advance.

Here is what I have put together so far, I had it working on occasion when you first enter information for the shipping, but doesn't work if you go back an enter a different zipcode. I then added $('#shippingCalc option[value=53334]').remove(); and it won't work at all. I'm not sure if it's me or a conflict with BC. Any Liams or Marios out there for some help, I'm really not good with this stuff, but love to learn.
