You could also help them out a little with something like..
$phone = str_replace("(", "", $phone);
$phone = str_replace(")", "-", $phone);

Dear List -
Thank you for all your help in the past.
Here is another one....
I would like to have a regex which would validate that a
telephone number is in the format xxx-xxx-xxxx.
Thanks.

You can't, phone numbers are more complex then that. You could use
\d{3}-\d{3}-\d{4} to match that basic pattern for all numbers though.
