| 00:59 | <BenMillard> | tiglionabbit, my phone doesn't insert punctuation and I'm glad about that |
| 00:59 | <BenMillard> | it converts any 00 at the start into + and that's it |
| 01:00 | <BenMillard> | in my area of the UK, we use (01234) 567 891 |
| 01:01 | <BenMillard> | on TV, I see 0800 12 34 56 or 0800 123 456 or 0800 123 4567 and so forth |
| 01:02 | <BenMillard> | the (01234) is optional if your own number starts with the 01234 "area code", hence the parentheses |
| 01:04 | <BenMillard> | as such, <input type="tel"> would need to permit the digits 0-9, parentheses (), hyphen-minus -, and space |
| 01:05 | <BenMillard> | in the USA I know companies often use the letters which appear on the corresponding number instead of the number... |
| 01:07 | <svl> | tiglionabbit: I'd suspect the US is one of the few countries to follow that 3-3-4 pattern. The Netherlands has 06-23456789 (mobile) or 012-3456789 or 0123-456789 (landlines). Australia has 0423-456789 for cell, new zealand has 01-23456789 for landlines, etc. |
| 01:07 | <BenMillard> | svl, and W3C puts dots in international numbers :) |
