\d{10} not quite...
\d{10} is true for any string of numeric *at least* 10 in length.
The response I'm looging for is:
1. I'm looking for a single numeric string of *exactly* 10. No more, no less.
2. Nothing else in the response.
It's simple, but I'm missing it...

\d{n}
e.g.
\d{9}
You can even use
\d{1,10}
to mean 1-10 digits.

Sort of - if any match fails, then it sets the response failed flag.
