            phone.val(phonerror);
        }

回答1:

Javascript includes a regular expression engine, which is accessed via the string.match(), string.replace() and string.split() functions.

For example:

var mystring = "this is a sentence";
mystring = mystring.replace(/sentence/,'string');

var matches = mystring.match(/\b\w+\b/);

That should provide you with essentially the same functionality as preg_match().

So to do the same validation as the preg_match in your question:

if(!phone.val().match(/^[0-9]{3}-|\s[0-9]{3}-|\s[0-9]{4}$/)) {
     phone.addClass("needsfilled");
     phone.val(phonerror);
}

If you absolutely insist on having a function called preg_match() which works exactly like the PHP version, there is a project called PHPJS, which aims to implement PHP functions in Javascript. A quick look at their site shows that although they don't currently have a fully working preg_match() implementation, they have an unfinished implementation which you may want to look at. But frankly, the built-in Javascript .match() function should be more than sufficient.

To use a PHP function, you will have to make an HTTP request to the server (with whatever data you want to test) and then parse the response.

Better to use JavaScript's native regular expression functionality.

RegExp.exec(string) will work.

try this:

var pattern= "/your pattern/";
var result = pattern.exec ( $("#phone").val() );
// true if match

Instead of using preg_match, which is a PHP function, you should use the String object's match function. See the Mozilla docs for information on using the match function.
