Problems with email validation


Pandolfo

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

 

I'm having some issues with a regular expression designed to validate email addresses. Most of the time it validates the address just fine. However, whenever someone enters an address where anything before the @ sign is separated with a period (something like john.doe@test.com) the string is rejected.

 

I've posted the expression below. Maybe i've been looking at it too long. Any help would be great.

 

Thanks!

 

"^[_a-z0-9-]+(\.[_a-z0-9-]+)*@[a-z0-9-]+(\.[a-z0-9-]+)*(\.[a-z]{2,3})$"
