Phone Number Validation MVC

Question

I am trying to use a regular expression to validate a phone number and return an error when an invalid number or phone number is submitted    MVC Code    lt ol class  row  gt       lt li class  cell  style  width  20    gt Phone Number  lt  li gt       lt li class  cell last  style  width  60    gt           Html TextBoxFor model   gt  model PhoneNumber  new    class    textbox               Html ValidationMessageFor model   gt  model PhoneNumber       lt  li gt   lt  ol gt    C  Code    DataType DataType PhoneNumber    Display Name    Phone Number     Required ErrorMessage    Phone Number Required      RegularExpression         0-9  3      -      0-9  3   -      0-9  4                         ErrorMessage    Entered phone format is not valid     public string PhoneNumber   get  set      However  the input box will not show a message to the user indicating that the phone number which was submitted is not valid

You don t have a validator on the page  Add something like this to show the validation message    Html ValidationMessageFor model   gt  model PhoneNumber      new    class    text-danger

Or you can use JQuery - just add your input field to the class  phone  and put this in your script section       phone   keyup function                this  val   this  val   replace     d 3    d 3    d         1  2- 3       There is no error message but you can see that the phone number is not correctly formatted until you have entered all ten digits

DataType DataType PhoneNumber   does not come with any validation logic out of the box  According to the docs   When you apply the DataTypeAttribute attribute to a data field you must do the following   Issue validation errors as appropriate    The  Phone  Attribute inherits from  DataType  and was introduced in  NET Framework 4 5  and is in  NET Core which does provide it s own flavor of validation logic   So you can use like this   Phone    public string PhoneNumber   get  set     However  the out-of-the-box validation for Phone numbers is pretty permissive  so you might find yourself wanting to inherit from DataType and implement your own IsValid method or  as others have suggested here  use a regular expression  amp  RegexValidator to constrain input  Note  Use caution with Regex against unconstrained input per the best practices as  NET has made the pivot away from regular expressions in their own internal validation logic for phone numbers

The phone number data annotation attribute is for the data type  which is not related to the data display format  It s just a misunderstanding  Phone number means you can accept numbers and symbols used for phone numbers for this locale  but is not checking the format  length  range  or else  For display string format use the javascript to have a more dynamic user interaction  or a plugin for MVC mask  or just use a display format string properly  If you are new to MVC programming put this code at the very end of your view file   cshtml  and see the magic   lt script src  quot https   code jquery com jquery-3 5 1 min js quot  integrity  quot sha256-9 aliU8dGd2tb6OSsuzixeV4y faTqgFtohetphbbj0  quot  crossorigin  quot anonymous quot  gt  lt  script gt   lt script type  quot text javascript quot  gt        document  ready function                 quot  the id of your field control quot   keyup function                    this  val   this  val   replace     d 2    d 5    d 4        quot   1   2- 3 quot                          lt  script gt   This format is currently used for mobile phones in Brazil  Adapt for your standard  This will add the parenthesis and spaces to your field  which will increase the string length of your input data  If you want to save just the numbers you will have to trim out the non-numbers from the string before saving
