How to add validation for phone number?

Question

I am getting a broken process if a user is entering phone number like 123 4567890. So I want to add a validation that when user enter any space between the phone number, the field should not accept the value and ask user to enter telephone number without any space

Hi, there are two possibilites: stripwith("text string"," ") 1.) you use the "validations" paramter of your textfield

 valdiations:	if(
 search(" ","textstring",1)>0,
 "Please enter online Numbers without space (' ')",
 {}
 ) 
 2.) you clean up the user input in your saveInto: a!save(
 target: local!yourvariable,
 value: stripwith("text string"," ")
) 
 a!save(
 target: local!yourvariable,
 value: cleanwith("123 3123","123456789")
)
