Hi. Wherever you need to refer to the phone number you can use the built-in Replace string function to remove all spaces from the string. In a query you would add a column and insert a calculated field like the following:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. ModPhoneNumber: Replace([Phonenumber], " ", "")

Hi, all. I'd like to do the following, preferably *without* resorting to JavaScript: I have a long, dynamically-generated form questionnaire. Not all of the form fields are dynamically generated, though. I'd like to capture the NAME of every HTML form field element on the server, even if that element is submitted blank. The trouble is, with, say, radio buttons or checkboxes for example, a *blank* element does not get submitted at all.

Hi folks, I have a client with four websites. Each site has a contact form that is identical. They all have "required" fields validated through a JavaScript onSubmit() function. Upon validation, post values go to a PHP processing page that adds values to a database and generates an email to someone in marketing. For three of these sites, we have no problem, but the fourth keeps sending in blank forms.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
