Given the grid supplied in the code below, how do I set validation on the phone and email to take advantage of the validation and masked input features kendo provides on this page (http://demos.telerik.com/kendo-ui/maskedtextbox/index)?
For example, if the user types in 5628103322, it should format it as (562)810-3322 as the demo on their page shows. Also if a number that was not entered correctly it should provide an error message.
Same for email, how do we do this?

the grid code above has changed, it almost works perfectly now thanks to the answer below, now I just need to figure out how to add validation to the phone number and email fields so input is required, and correct input.
UPDATE #2
The code below now works perfectly thanks to the answer, just wanted to share it to others that might need help. Something interesting to note is the model rule phonerule has to be named whatever the text in the middle between the dashes of this is data-phonerule-msg. I'm guessing Kendo-UI must look for that when looking for custom rules.

You should add to column definition custom editor with validation attributes:
{
field: "email",
title:"Email",
editor: function(container, options) {
var input = $('<input type="email" data-email-msg="Invalid email!" class="k-textbox"/>');
input.attr("name", options.field);
input.appendTo(container);
}
}
Update: phone validation: add this attribute to phone input ("phonerule" - is the name of custom validation rule):
data-phonerule-msg="Invalid phone!"
add custom validation rule to schema.model.fields.phone:
phone: {
type: "string",
validation: {
phonerule: function(e) {
if (e.is("[data-phonerule-msg]"))
{
var input = e.data('kendoMaskedTextBox');
return input.value().indexOf(input.options.promptChar) === -1;
}
return true;
}
}
}
