Do you even need a regex?

What about

if (strlen($_POST['mobile_number']) != 11 && substr($_POST['mobile_number'],0,3) != 447)
{
$error="Invalid Number";
}

Hi,

Could anyone help me with a reugular expression for a UK mobile phone
number?

So far I have tried this but with no success

<snip>
$regexp = "/^447[0-9]{9}$/";
if(!preg_match( $regexp, $_POST[mobile_number] )){
     $error = "Invalid Mobile Number";
</snip>

The number nust be 11 numbers long, be all numbers, have no spaces and begin
with 447.


Any help would be greatly appreciated...
