I've created a custom profile.  For a couple of the fields, I've used the built in phone # fields, specifically, Contacts->Phone->Primary Phone for example.

What I've noticed is that my phone # only validates for it being a required field.  It doesn't validate for a proper phone number entry. I can put in gibberish and it will save that field.

Do I need to implement my own validation beyond the required field validation, or is there something I'm missing here?

Thank you for the quick reply.
