In this video we will discuss, how regular expressions can be used to perform client side validation.
On most of the websites it is common to check if the format of the email is valid. Using regular expressions we can achieve this very easily.
Here is an example.
Email : [input type=”text” id=”txtEmail” onkeyup=”validateEmail()” /]
[script type=”text/javascript”]
function validateEmail() {
var emailTextBox = document.getElementById(“txtEmail”);
var email = emailTextBox.value;
var emailRegEx = /^(([^[]()[]\.,;:s@”]+(.[^[]()[]\.,;:s@”]+)*)|(“.+”))@(([[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}.[0-9]{1,3}])|(([a-zA-Z-0-9]+.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$/;
emailTextBox.style.color = “white”;
if (emailRegEx.test(email)) {
emailTextBox.style.backgroundColor = “green”;
}
else {
emailTextBox.style.backgroundColor = “red”;
}
}
[/script]
