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.

Regex is over-kill.
$phoneNum = preg_replace("%\D%", '', $phoneNum);//Remove everything except digits
$phoneNum = ltrim($phoneNum,'1');//Remove leading 1s
if(strlen($phoneValue) != 10)
{
throw new Exception("Phone number must be 10 digits, without leading a 1. Check
your entry carefull");
}
