I've pasted the code on the forum in my validation php file (and customized it for 999-999-9999 formatting). This still does not work. Does anyone have a script that will actually work? Entering a phone number without dashes separating the numbers is not intuitive or user friendly. Virtually everyone will input a phone number this way. Not sure why this can't be added in at this point or at the very least allow the alphanumeric validation script to work on phone number text fields.

I use this one and it works great.
function phone($phone) { 
    $phone_2 = preg_replace('/[^0-9]+/', '', $phone ); 
    if($phone_2=='') return true; 
    $len = strlen($phone_2); 
    if($len == 10 || $len == 11) { 
        return true; 
    } else { 
        return false; 
    } 
}

That's great! Can you tell me what format this code will accept?
