+Phone Number Validation — Client Script (ServiceNow)
+Overview
+
+This Client Script ensures that users enter their phone numbers in a strict format: (123) 456-7890.
+It is triggered whenever the Phone field changes and validates the input in real time.
+
+If the input does not match the required format, the script:
+
+Clears the invalid value.
+
+Displays a field-level error message directly below the field.
+
+Provides a fallback alert if field-level messaging is unavailable.
+
+This script is designed to be user-friendly, dynamic, and failsafe.
+
+Features
