Hi Ryan,
This code looks doubtful to me, for a few reasons:
(^[[:alnum:]]([._-]?[[:alnum:]]+)*+\@[[:alnum:]]+([.-]?[[:alnum:]]+)*\.[[:al
pha:]]{1,4}$)
^ no multipler for the opening character? Does that mean only
a single alnum allowed before punctuation? I would expect a "+" inserted
here.
^ what's the significance of the "?". I'm not familiar
with "?" as a multiplier. Looks like it should be left out.
^ what's the "+" for? What is is
modifying? Could be left out?
^ and THIS question
mark?
On the other hand, I've never had much luck trying to understand other
people's REs, so I may be talking garbage. Anyone who can explain this RE
to me, please feel free!!
Anyway, none of that would explain why it hangs.
So, wasn't that a lot of help ;-)
Let us know what you find,
best of luck,
Lee (Bjork) Borkman

Does this code look OK, or is there a variant of it I could try that maybe
won't be buggy? My next option is to just do the validation piece by piece:
find the last ., make sure there are x chars after it, make sure it only has
one @ sign, no spaces or other ilegal chars, etc etc.
<CFIF Len(fieldvalue) AND NOT
REFindNoCase('(^[[:alnum:]]([._-]?[[:alnum:]]+)*+\@[[:alnum:]]+([.-]?[[:alnu
m:]]+)*\.[[:alpha:]]{1,4}$)', fieldvalue, "True")>
Invalid!
</CFIF>
