I am trying to allow ‘-‘ in the regular expression for telephone numbers, but the – is usually used for ranges (e.g. A-Z). So how do I allow just the character? I tried escapting using /-, but that’s not working.
$reg_num = "/[^0-9+ ()]/";
You need to escape it with a backslash
\. So it should be written as\-.
