What's the best way to disallow free email service emails (e.g. Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail) using RegEx and Javascript email field validation?
^.*@(?!(aol\.com$|yahoo\.com$|hotmail\.com$))$
I've seen the generic "Validate email address in Javascript" solution here Validate email address in JavaScript? but cant figure out how to make it disallow Gmail, Yahoo and Hotmail.
[a-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+(?:\.[a-z0-9!#$%&'*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+)*@(?:[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?\.)+(?:[A-Z]{2}|com|org|net|edu|gov|mil|biz|info|mobi|name|aero|asia|jobs|museum)\b
One of thousands of acceptable ways to get there - not that yours isn't acceptable...
function isGoodEmail(email) {
if(isValidEmail(email)) {
if(/(aol|gmail|yahoo|hotmail)\.com$/.test(email)) {
alert(' valid email, but not for this site. No free service emails!');
return false;
}
return true;
}
return false;
}
function isValidEmail(email) {
// implement using any of the email regexp's available
}
