Original Tutorial: PHP Phone Number Validation
My comment on the actual article never did approved, so I'll post it here. I started to work on a validation / cleanser class file, which you can view here: http://www.webdeveloper.com/forum/showthread.php?t=157676&highlight=validation . I never did complete it and was working on finishing up the phone number validation section.
