I just plain suck at regex, so I was hoping to get some hints from you
regex experts out there. I'm sure it's been done a thousand times, but
I can't seem to find what I'm looking for with a simple google search:
$phone could be "1234567890" OR
$phone could be "123-456-7890" OR
$phone could be "(123) 456 7890 OR
$phone could have other unexpected characters in it, even control
characters.
So what I'm desiring to do is run some type of regex on $phone and only
return the integers and assign the cleaned string back to $phone. I
thought I knew how to do this, but it's not working.
Thanks for your guidance.
If all you want is the digits....
$phone = preg_replace ( "/\D/", "", $phone );
Same as....
/[^0-9]/
