Hello there, 
 
I need help: I've a string that is used to write down a phone number that  
comes from a form and would like to keep it as clean as possible. For  
avoiding people to create twice an account using a different syntax. 
 
For this the only char I'd like to allow are number 0-9, '/','.' and spaces. 
 
I'd like to replace everything other by a "space". 
 
Lets give some examples: 
 
some allowed: 
555/55.55.55 
555 55 55 55 
555.555 555 
 
some not allowed and their changes: 
555-55-55-55 -> 555.55.55.55 
555,55,55,55 -> 555.55.55.55 
555:55;55_55 -> 555.55.55.55 
55555\55>55 -> 55555.55.55 
and so on. 
 
How can I do that ? I'm not confortable with ereg_replace, so if you could  
give the final statement it would be greately appreciated. 
 
Bob
