Wrong venue for this subject but people here represent a variety
of viewpoints and more important, think about details like this.
For years, all phone numbers had hyphen separators (212-555-1212)
but use of the dot separator (212.555.1212) seems to be growing.
Any advantage of one over the other?
In France this number will often will be write like this :
21 25 55 12 12
And in belgium like:
in local 02/234.45.56 or O61/14.23.35 for international +32 2
234.45.56 or +32 61 14.23.35
Why speaking of phone number in mozilla.support.seamonkey?
This is a mysterious deviation :-)
How do you format telephone numbers in SeaMonkey? How would you
prefer telephone numbers to be formatted? Should there be a way to
set up personal variations that can be translated into other user's
favorite format? How are others doing it? Etc. In other words, this
is a legitimate variation.
Too complicated to format something when we see a difference between
belgium and france ... 2 adjacents nations :-)
Let everybody format their phone number as he want ... because if a
have a belgian contact, i will format it as belgium does, if it's a
french contact, i will format it as france does, and if a have a
contact from USA the first part(00 1) will be formatted as i do in
belgium followed by the US format. So i repeat ... in SM let people
type what he want.
It really does not matter how you format it. The numbers must be entered
into the system in a specific order so when I call the UK, I dial
44nnnnnnnnnn and do not need any special characters, in fact, the
special characters just get in the way. I am waiting to see if the
telephone system is going to go hexadecimal. That should make it
interesting. A major expansion of the dialable numbers with no increase
in the number of characters to be dialed.
