   2. String : This is predefined format which you can use to validate phone/fax number. It may contain +, - and space. You can modify it as per your requirement.

{
    for(var Idx=0; Idx<NumStr.length; Idx++)
    {
        var Char = NumStr.charAt(Idx);
        var Match = false;

        for(var Idx1=0; Idx1<String.length; Idx1++)
        {
            if(Char == String.charAt (Idx1))
                Match = true;
        }

       return false;
    }

    if(!ValidateNo(document.myform.phone.value,"1234567890+- "))
    {
        alert("Please Enter Only Number");
        document.myform.phone.focus();
        return false;
