validEmail is a simple jQuery email validator.
$("input#email").validEmail() returns true if valid, false if invalid.
You can also validate on any jQuery text input event.
$("input.email").validEmail({on:_event_, success:_success_handler_, failure: _failure_handler_});This will bind the email validation check on the blur event. If it validates it will run the success handler. When it fails it will run the failure hanlder.
$("input.email").validEmail({on:"blur", success:function(){
$(this).removeClass("error").addClass("valid");
}, failure:function(){
$(this).removeClass("valid").addClass("error");
}});You can also pass in a true value to testInitially to test as the code gets executed aswell as when the event is triggered.
$("textarea.email").validEmail({on:"keyup", success:function(){
$(this).removeClass("error").addClass("valid");
}, failure:function(){
$(this).removeClass("valid").addClass("error");
},
testInitially: true
