Constraint for capturing telephone number in international notation

Dear All

Need some help with a constraint to force surveyor to enter a telephone
number in the following format with no spaces.

+27xxxxxxxxx e.g. +27116784567

Thanks

This would be a string field ( telephone numbers cannot fit in an int ).
Use an appearance="numbers"

to force the numeric keyboard.

constraint = " string-length(.) = 12 and regex(.,'^+27[0-9]+$') "

you might also be able to just do:

constraint = "regex(.,'^+27[0-9]{9}$')"

See http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/api/java/util/regex/Pattern.html
for the details.

Hi

I have tried both formats with no success. I have also tried the following with no success, my regex is very bad L

constraint = "regex(^(?:(?:(|)0|+27|27)(?:1[12345678]|2[123478]|3[1234569]|4[\d]|5[134678])(?:slight_smile: | |-|)\d{3}(?: |-|)\d{4}$)"

Bashir,

Mitch's regex works great for me.

The XML should look like:

This passes:
+27123456789

This doesn't:
+2712345678

You can confirm with http://rubular.com.
