New Confirm Options give you even more flexibility. Now that statement just has to make everyone want to go check this option out for themselves! :)

What we will probably have to do here is create a new MAGICAL element for phone numbers. Please post as many different suggestions on formats so we can make sure to cover as many as possible.
Here are some standard USA ones:
###-###-####
(###)-###-####
(###) ###-####
###.###.####

Even for the US, where phone numbers have a fixed number of digits, you end up with half a dozen or a dozen 'acceptable' permutations on formats. For the various countries in Europe, the number of permutations would be far greater. For the rest of the world we might as well forget it! The number of digits in country codes alone may be one, two or three digits and the same goes for area codes. And then there are endless variations in local number combinations for all those countries out there...
I think phone number verification may be workable when applied to an individual country (e.g. the US), but not when attempted for a full range of international target audiences. The cost in terms of frustrated, lost customers would far exceed any possible gains. So, my recommendation would be to drop the whole idea of phone number format verification if the target audience is international!

You can make a List Box Required but not a Drop Box, any reason for this.

That was already discussed further down by Jo Ann. We have that on the list. ;)


Just want to clarify since that's not really what I was talking about lol.

I'm talking about not having a choice already made in the selections. I too want to be able to do them all as required if needed, but my main concern was that they don't have items selected on default and that the users is made to choose one rather than have a choice defaulted for them. Hopefully I said it right so it's clear?

Yep, I know exactly what you are describing. I know, I know, that is a first. ;)

When you use the Captcha option, your form has to at least have a width of 500.

The CAPTCHA box does have a hard-coded dimensions, so if you reduce the width of your form smaller then the box, it will overlap some what.
