Regex problem

[John444]

I am having trouble learning regex!
I cannot seem to get the right php regex to validate that an email that is in the form (xxx) xxx-xxxx

I know the javascript regex is /\(\d{3}\) \d{3}\-\d{4}/ but what is the php regex?

If anyone can give me the regex for this it would be appreciated

never mind I figured it out

/^\(\d{3}\)\-\d{3}\-\d{4}$/

Bit of software for trying out regexes.

There are online alternatives as well.
