i agree.
there's NOTHING more annoying than a broken validation
script when you're trying to enter valid, but weird, data.
perhaps separate the form up into one box for the
country code, one box for the number, and one box
for any add'l information (extensions, automated prompt
numbers, etc...), so that you'd only have to work at
validating the actual number (and not any extraneous
and oddly formatted info)
