Problem with account creation

[ps2k11]

If a customer creates an account the telephone number is mandatory.

 

However if the customer puts in a blank in the telephone number it's accepted and there is no telephone number when the account is created.

 

Is the a way to fix this problem that only numbers or dashes are allowed and no blanks ?

I managed to solve the problem by removing the blank from

 

return preg_match('/^[+0-9.()-]*$/', $phoneNumber); in Validate.php

 

If I want the customer to enter numbers only how do I limit the number of characters to 10 ? maximum is 16

you can update the theme template file and limit the field size to 10
