/* For UK phone functions, do the following server side processing:
|
* Compare original input with this RegEx pattern:
|
* ^\(?(?:(?:00\)?[\s\-]?\(?|\+)(44)\)?[\s\-]?\(?(?:0\)?[\s\-]?\(?)?|0)([1-9]\d{1,4}\)?[\s\d\-]+)$
|
* Extract $1 and set $prefix to '+44<space>' if $1 is '44', otherwise set $prefix to '0'
|
* Extract $2 and remove hyphens, spaces and parentheses. Phone number is combined $prefix and $2.
|
* A number of very detailed GB telephone number RegEx patterns can also be found at:
