Confiforms Formatting Phone Number

[Daniel C. Igbokwe]

I would like users to enter a 10 digit number and later have it formatted
e.g 1234567890 into (123) 456-7890. I have tried using the formatPattern virtual function with the field definition rules macro and the IFTTT rules macro but it isn't changing the format.

Function: formatToPattern((\d{3})(\d{3})(\d+), ($1) $2-$3)

Thank you

Hi @Daniel C. Igbokwe 

Trying to understand what is the problem really...

See my test (based on what I understand) - http://recordit.co/gNMoAm8Iab

And the storage format for the reference, just in case
