Email validation using jQuery

Question

I\'m new to jQuery and was wondering how to use it to validate email addresses.

Answer 1

Bug is in Jquery Validation Validation Plugin Only validates with @ to change this

change the code to this

email: function( value, element ) {
    // From http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/states-of-the-type-attribute.html#e-mail-state-%28type=email%29
    // Retrieved 2014-01-14
    // If you have a problem with this implementation, report a bug against the above spec
    // Or use custom methods to implement your own email validation
    return this.optional( element ) || /^([a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-])+\@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$/.test( value );
}
