While filling the form, the respondent can type or select a country code from the dropdown menu, it is different form the default country code that was set for the question. For countries that share the same country code, a list of matching countries will appear in the dropdown.
Once a country code is chosen and the respondent starts typing, the border of the input box becomes red and the submit button gets disabled, indicating that the phone number is invalid.
After the respondent finishes typing and if the entry is a valid phone number, the red color on the border disappears and the submit button gets enabled, signalling to the user that their entry is valid and they can proceed to the next question.
