If you're having problems keeping *nesting* parens balanced, you might
consider to avoid them. The code above could be written this way:

$characters = str_split($zip, 1);
$is_alphanumeric = ctype_alnum($characters);
if ($is_aphanumeric)
{

This has the additional advantage that it eases debugging.

BTW: The code won't work, as ctype_alnum() expects a string, but
str_split() returns an array.
