note 89998 deleted from function.preg-match-all by thiago

Note Submitter: admin (ad) djokodonev.com ---- i have made up a simple function to extract a number from a string.. I am not sure how good it is, but it works. It gets only the numbers 0-9, the "-", " ", "(", ")", "." characters.. This is as far as I know the most widely used characters for a Phone number. function clean_phone_number($phone) { if (!empty($phone)) { //var_dump($phone); preg_match_all('/[0-9\(\)+.\- ]/s', $phone, $cleaned); foreach($cleaned[0] as $k=>$v) { $ready .= $v; } var_dump($ready); die; if (mb_strlen($cleaned) > 4 && mb_strlen($cleaned) <=25) { return $cleaned; } else { return false; } } return false; }
