I do not disagree about the research part at all. I know it will take a researcher on my staff a great deal of time to maintain, but it is never the less, a needed feature. I just thought that most Countries have a fairly well formatted number. And mostly I am taking about supporting N.&S. America, Western Europe only. Later look at the far East.
But this would need to choose the whole part of the phone number then just store the proper number into my DB for the user. Until they update the number again, then they choose again. --- Thanks Mick Knutson +001(805) 563-0666 Office +001 (708) 570-2772 Fax --- ----- Original Message ----- From: "Joe Germuska" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Struts Users Mailing List" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Thursday, October 02, 2003 6:54 AM Subject: Re: [OT] International telephone number formatter component???? > At 6:42 -0700 10/2/03, Mick Knutson wrote: > >I am wondering if anyone has developed an International telephone number > >formatter component? > >I have International users, creating phone numbers that will be used to > >generate emergency phone calls by a software package.
