Validation for fax number only?

Question

I'm using the following validation for fax numbers:

[RegularExpression(@"^\+[0-9]{1,3}\([0-9]{3}\)[0-9]{7}$", ErrorMessage = "This is not a valid fax number.")]

But the fax number form entry does not accept any input.

Please provide sample input :). Anyway, you can try your regex in http://gskinner.com/RegExr/ — OnesimusUnbound, Apr 15 '13 at 08:23

Try this;

\+[0-9]{1,3}\([0-9]{3}\)[0-9]{7}

Sample outputs;

+895(194)6165163
+09(155)2541778

You don't need to use ^ for this. It means "except".

Thanks for help. But My Client Said :The fax number form entry does not accept any input, including valid fax numbers, instead displaying 'this is not a valid fax number' – Apr 15 '13 at 08:32
@sandeepsinghwarring then you should use js for this – radu florescu Apr 15 '13 at 08:43
