Regular Expression Details

Title Test Find International & Domestic Phone Numbers with Ext
Expression
^([\+][0-9]{1,3}([ \.\-])?)?([\(]{1}[0-9]{3}[\)])?([0-9A-Z \.\-]{1,32})((x|ext|extension)?[0-9]{1,4}?)$
Description
Somewhat conservative expression for evaluating phone numbers. Based off ideas found at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/123559/a-comprehensive-regex-for-phone-number-validation this allows country codes, with or without the + symbol, area codes surrounded by parenthesis (or not) and numbers delimited by spaces, periods or dashes. You'll want to independently test for string length based on your needs.

In your Matches section +1 (123)456-7890 is not matching with ur regex instead +1 (123) 456-7890 is working fine which is correct too. You may want to update it. Thanks

Title: Extension-space non-match?

Comment:
While I didn't read all of the lengthy article on Stackoverflow, why is a space after the "x" cause for a non-match?
