<div><br></div><div>Ok but this is available today and works fine, so it can be used as a zero day replacement. Any syntax change is welcome but will take time until it gets in a public release and does not save you the hassle to change the dialplans anyway - unless you implement it as a default behaviour at the SIP driver level. And I got a feeling that most people will simply not bother learning regexps....<br>
</div><div>You could just as reasonably write a script to do the check, or run a check in the dialplan itself, or change Asterisk. </div><div>l.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/2/15 Steve Murphy <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:murf@parsetree.com">murf@parsetree.com</a>></span><br>

<div>Yes but in any case you can enter all of the strings that reasonably match - even if you have variable-length numbers, you will be able to determine that a valid number be between 5 and 15 characters - or likely 2 to 20, all numbers. A number of 156 characters is very likely to be a problem.<br>
