How to validate email address field 28.11.2013 05:01
There is a email address filed in my form. I need to validate the email address before calculation and sending email.
I wrote the code in Js event before calculation
var emailaddress = cb_getValue('email');
var filter = /^([a-zA-Z0-9_\.\-])+\@(([a-zA-Z0-9\-])+\.)+([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4})+$/;
if (!filter.test(emailaddress)) {
alert('Please provide a valid email address');
}
But after click the button in alert , it still doing calculation and send email to admin. What should I do?
Thank you very much

Hi,
you can add email validation to a text field just typing 'email', at the css class. It will use jquery validator to force the input to be a valid mail format before launching the calculator. You can check how does it work at the video:

Thank you very much . It is a great help. It works !
There is another question. I would like to confirm the email in the next field , which means user type the email address must be the same as the previous one they type.
I check the jQuery documentation , there is a "equalTo()" method , so I type " equalTo(variable name)" in the CSS field, but it doesn't work.
Can you help me ? thank you

Hi,
that jquery method that uses parameters can't be set directly via css property. You can validate manually, for example if your fields are called 'field1' and 'field2', at the js tab execute before calculate execution:
if(cb_getValue('field1')!=cb_getValue('field2')){
alert("wrong!");
return false;
}
Hope this helps, regards

Hi,
you can try to get the values in a different way, in order to ensure it recovers the actual value of each field:
if(CB("input[fldname=field1]").val()!=CB("input[fldname=field2]").val()){
.....
