Nice one, Ian :)
Without the extras, here's a regex for UK post codes:
/^[A-Z]{1,2}\d[\dA-Z]?\s?\d[A-Z]{2}$/i
and one for UK phones (includes mobiles):
^\\s*\\(?(020[7,8]{1}\\)?[ ]?[1-9]{1}[0-9{2}[ ]?[0-9]{4})|(0[1-8]{1}
[0-9]{3}\\)?[ ]?[1-9]{1}[0-9]{2}[ ]?[0-9]{3})\\s*\$
Made these ages ago & have forgotten how - but they work. Done for PHP
- is javascript regex different?
