Formatting phone number

Hello,

I am trying to format US phone numbers to look like this (###) ###-#### and the code that I used is:

Code:

function format_phone($phone_1)
{
	$phone = preg_replace("/[^0-9]/", "", $phone_1);

	if(strlen($phone_1) == 7)
		return preg_replace("/([0-9]{3})([0-9]{4})/", "$1-$2", $phone_1);
	elseif(strlen($phone_1) == 10)
		return preg_replace("/([0-9]{3})([0-9]{3})([0-9]{4})/", "($1) $2-$3", $phone_1);
	else
		return $phone_1;
}

This was inputted into the VirtuemartOrdersReport.php file and it does not seem to work.
