if they all have the same format, then you can do this (don't need regexs)
$number = '1234567890';
$formatted_number = '(' . substr($number,0,3) . ') ' . substr($number,3,3) .
'-' . substr($number,6);

Subject: [PHP] again with the regex
I hate to keep asking regex stuff,
but it is really evasive for me..
I'm pulling phone numbers out of a DB
in the format of 1234567890, I would
like to format them like (123) 456-7890
or something else that at least breaks them
up a bit.
any help is appreciated,
Thanks,
Jerry Lake
