In my registration form I want to put some client-side validations with MVC regular expressions, but it doesn't work... Here is part of model's code
[Required]
[RegularExpression(@"^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$", ErrorMessage = "Please enter a valid e-mail adress")]
[DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)]
[Display(Name = "Email address*")]
public string Email { get; set; }
But the message don't want to appear anyway... What is wrong here?
EDIT
In my View I have this
<div>
<div class="editor-label">
@Html.LabelFor(m => m.Email)
</div>
<div class="editor-field">
@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Email)
@Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Email)
</div>
</div>
And I've also include jQuery libraries in my layout
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8" />
<title>@ViewBag.Title</title>
<link href="/Content/Site.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" />
<script src="/Scripts/jquery-1.5.1.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/modernizr-1.7.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.unobtrusive-ajax.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.min.js"></script>
<script src="/Scripts/jquery.validate.unobtrusive.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
@RenderSection("Head")
</head>

I've finally figured it out... Replacing Required attribute after RegularExpression attribute solved the problem)))
Instead this
[Required]
[RegularExpression(@"^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$", ErrorMessage = "Please enter a valid e-mail adress")]
[DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)]
[Display(Name = "Email address*")]
public string Email { get; set; }
now I have
[RegularExpression(@"^([a-zA-Z0-9_\-\.]+)@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.)|(([a-zA-Z0-9\-]+\.)+))([a-zA-Z]{2,4}|[0-9]{1,3})(\]?)$", ErrorMessage = "Please enter a valid e-mail adress")]
[Required]
[DataType(DataType.EmailAddress)]
[Display(Name = "Email address*")]
public string Email { get; set; }
And it now works perfectly!
