Description
Exercise in writing a type that uses regexp to validate that a phone number only contains approved characters. Such as digits or any of +, -, space, ., (,) Can return true or false, the errors found etc. Can also clean the input from all non-approved chars. Written by Jolle Carlestam in an iterative process with Chris Wik, Ke Carlton and Tim Taplin after a discussion on the Lasso 9 beta list 2010-08-12
Sample Usage
local('test_num' = jina_validatephone('1-970-728-9773'));
#test_num -> valid;
#test_num; // Returns true or false, same as using jina_validatephone -> valid
#test_num -> errors;
#test_num -> findvalue;
#test_num -> inputvalue;
#test_num -> cleanup;
