e-mail control with Javascript

[Gabriele]

Hi all!
I'm just a beginner in this language, so here's my simple question: how can I create a Javascript e-mail control?
For istance, to check if an e-mail is valid or not. How can I write an e-mail using Javascript? Thanx! cheers :)

I think the best that you will be able to achieve in JavaScript is to check that the e-mail address is in the form of *@*.* Is that what you want? Then do a search for the following keywords.
regexp javascript email validation

Actually testing to see whether that e-mail address actually exists is outside of JavaScripts capabilities I believe.

Can you show me some useful examples? thanx! :)

Do a search for the keywords regexp javascript email validation in your favourite search engine, and I'm sure you will find plenty of examples :-)
