international phone number testing with javascript

[Mark D Smith]

Hi

i have to test a form for valid format of international numbers in the
format +44.1234567890
i realize that some countries have 3 numbers after the + but so far apart
from checking the number has numbers + and a . i have had no luck checking
for +NN. or +NNN.

Not very useful, since:
the one period is not the accepted standard
there are also 1 numbered [and 3 numbered] country codes
the 10 numbers after that are not absolute
result = /^\+\d{2}\.\d{10}$/.test('+44.1234567890')

a little better:

result = /^\+\d{1,3}\.\d{10}$/.test('+44.1234567890')

Hi

the format is in use by a few domain resellers that the form i use has to
send in the above format else the domains will net be accepted.
thanks for the regexp now i just need to figure out how to code it in
javascript.

function testMyPhoneFormat(x){
return /^\+\d{1,3}\.\d{10}$/.test(x)
}
