regular expression validator

[niju]

Hi
I have a text box which takes either 8 or 10 digit number. I am using a
regular expression valuator to validate the text box. I also want to be
able to remove any white space from the text box. Is there a way to do
this with in the regular expression valuator? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.

Here is my Regex : (02)?[4,8,9]{1}[0-9]{3}[0-9]{4}

for example (99 99 9999) should be (99999999) and validated against
(02)?[4,8,9]{1}[0-9]{3}[0-9]{4}
many Thanks

to test RE's, look for programs as "The Regulator" and "The Regex Coach"

If the spaces are at expected places, you can extend your RE:
(02)?[4,8,9]{1}[ ]?[0-9]{3}[ ]?[0-9]{4}
