Super simple email validation with javascript

Question

I\'m making a really simple email validation script that basically just checks the following

1. that the email isn\'t blank
2. the the email contains an @ s

Answer 1

What others have suggested should work fine, but if you want to keep things simple, try this:

var booking_email = $('input[name=booking_email]').val();

if( /(.+)@(.+){2,}\.(.+){2,}/.test(booking_email) ){
  // valid email
} else {
  // invalid email
}

Even if you decide to go with something more robust, it should help you understand how simple regex can be at times. :)
