Validate email address using javascript

Question

here's the code that I'm using to validate email address on clicking submit button by the user,

/^\w+([\.-]?\w+)*@\w+([\.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/.test(EmailID);

I would like to allow apostrophe(') to the email address entered by the user, what would be the modification for the regex above?

Answer 1

try this:

/^(\w|')+([\.-]?(\w|')+)*@\w+([\.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/

it will allow apostrophe anywhere before the '@'
