Thank you guys! I have made a slightly different logic, which seems to
be working fine:

 function zipSearch2(){
        var zip = $j('input#zip_entry').attr('value');
        alert('second '+validation);
...........
............

}

function zipSearch(){
                var zip = $j('input#zip_entry').attr('value');
                 $j.post("markers.php", { validate: zip},
        function(xml){
                var validation = $j.xml2json(xml, true);
                if(validation.zip[0].city !='na') {
                        zipSearch2();
                }
                else $j('#bad_zip').dialog('open');
        });
}

So, I am calling the main function zipSearch2 from the ajax callback
part of the zipSearch(). Are there any potential synchronization
pitfalls here i should be aware of?
