Hi
try this example to validate Email using Client and Server Side :-
** Using Client Side Validation **
– Example1:-
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
function validateEmail()
{
var regex = /^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@([a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.)+[a-zA-Z0-9.-]{2,4}$/;
return regex.test(document.getElementById('<%= txtEmail.ClientID %>').value);
}
</script>
– Example2:-
<script type="text/javascript">
function validateEmail()
{
var obj=document.getElementById('<%= txtEmail.ClientID %>');
var regex = /^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@([a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.)+[a-zA-Z0-9.-]{2,4}$/;
if(regex.test(obj.value))
{
//You can also assign stylesheet by
//obj.className='....';
obj.style.backgroundColor = '';
obj.style.backgroundColor = '';
return true;
}
else
{
//Changing Background Color so that user can understand that its invalid
//You can also assign stylesheet by
//obj.className='....';
obj.style.backgroundColor = '#FD5E53';
obj.style.borderColor = '#CD4A4A';
return false;
}
}
</script>
and the HTML Page will be :-
<asp:TextBox ID='txtEmail' runat="server"></asp:TextBox> <asp:Button id="cmdSave" runat="server" Text="Save" OnClientClick="return validateEmail();" />
** Using Server Side **
public static class Validation
{
public const string EmailStandard = @"^[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@([a-zA-Z0-9.-]+\.)+[a-zA-Z0-9.-]{2,4}$";
public static bool ValidateEmail(string emailID)
{
if (emailID != null)
return System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.IsMatch(emailID, EmailStandard);
else
return false;
}
}
Now from our aspx page write the below code when user click on a button to proceed.
if (Validation.ValidateEmail(txtEmail.Text))
{
//Valid Email
}
else
{
//Invalid Email
//Notify user
return;
}
Hope this helps
Good Luck.
