Regular Expressions for U.S. Phone Numbers

 / Published in: Regular Expression

(Created for JavaScript)

These are rather forgiving. Spaces, dashes, or periods are allowed as separators. Extensions can be recognized by several strings (#, x, x., ext, ext., extension).

Area code: $1$2 Exchange code: $3 Station code: $4 Extension / Extra characters: $5

Separators are not accepted within the $3$4$5 portion of a vanity number.

Example: (540) 555-0123 ext.678 --> ($1$2) $3-$4 ext.$5 Example: 1-800-GOODFOOD --> 1-$1$2-$3$4$5

Fixed some stupid mistakes (i.e., the commas) and made it a bit more efficient.
