hi...
i have a string i want to pull out of a database (mysql). the column name is
Phone1 and it is a 10 digit phone number. the raw string coming out of the
table column would look like this: 1234567890
what i want to do is format the string on display like this: (123)456-7890
but dont quite know how to start with that. what function(s) would i use for
that?
