I'm trying to use JavaScript to validate an email address and I want to find
the position of the period (".") in the address. When I pass it a valid
address like:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ( = email)
and I have in my function:
var vat = email.search("@");
var vdot = email.search(".");
vat is equal to 4 and vdot is equal to 0 (zero)!
email.substr(0,1) gives me "d" as it should.
Why can't it give me the correct index of a period? Is there a way to test
for the ascii value?
Any help is MUCH appreciated.
Thanks,
