Description
message
data-fv-emailaddress-message
String
The error message
multiple
data-fv-emailaddress-multiple
String
Allow multiple email addresses, separated by a comma or semicolon. The
default value is false
separator
data-fv-emailaddress-separator
String
Regex for character or characters expected as separator between
addresses. By default, it is /[,;]/, i.e. comma or semicolon
When setting options via HTML attributes, remember to
enable the validator by setting data-fv-emailaddress="true". You don't need to do
that when using HTML 5 type="email" attribute.
This validator passes an empty field since the field
might be optional. If the field is required, then use the
notEmpty validator.
You also can use the remote validator to connect and
validate the email address on the server. The Using Mailgun API to
validate email address example demonstrates how to do this.
ejemplos
Basic example
< form id = "emailForm" class = "form-horizontal" >
< div class = "form-group" >
< label class = "col-xs-3 control-label" > Email address</ label >
< div class = "col-xs-7" >
< input type = "text" class = "form-control" name = "email" />
</ div >
</ div >
</ form >
< script >
$ ( document ). ready ( function () {
$ ( '#emailForm' ). formValidation ({
framework : 'bootstrap' ,
icon : {
valid : 'glyphicon glyphicon-ok' ,
invalid : 'glyphicon glyphicon-remove' ,
validating : 'glyphicon glyphicon-refresh'
},
fields : {
email : {
validators : {
emailAddress : {
message : 'The value is not a valid email address'
}
}
}
}
});
});
</ script >
< form id = "emailForm" class = "form-horizontal"
data-fv-framework = "bootstrap"
data-fv-icon-valid = "glyphicon glyphicon-ok"
data-fv-icon-invalid = "glyphicon glyphicon-remove"
data-fv-icon-validating = "glyphicon glyphicon-refresh" >
< div class = "form-group" >
< label class = "col-xs-3 control-label" > Email address</ label >
< div class = "col-xs-7" >
< input type = "text" class = "form-control" name = "email"
data-fv-emailaddress = "true"
data-fv-emailaddress-message = "The value is not a valid email address" />
</ div >
</ div >
</ form >
< script >
$ ( document ). ready ( function () {
$ ( '#emailForm' ). formValidation ();
});
</ script >
HTML 5 example
The emailAddress validator will be enabled automatically when using HTML 5
type="email"
attribute.
< form id = "emailAddressHtml5Form" class = "form-horizontal"
data-fv-framework = "bootstrap"
data-fv-icon-valid = "glyphicon glyphicon-ok"
data-fv-icon-invalid = "glyphicon glyphicon-remove"
data-fv-icon-validating = "glyphicon glyphicon-refresh" >
< div class = "form-group" >
< label class = "col-xs-3 control-label" > Email address</ label >
< div class = "col-xs-7" >
< input class = "form-control" name = "email"
type = "email"
data-fv-emailaddress-message = "The value is not a valid email address" />
</ div >
</ div >
</ form >
< script >
$ ( document ). ready ( function () {
$ ( '#emailAddressHtml5Form' ). formValidation ();
});
</ script >
Is a@b valid email address?
Yes! It's valid email address. If you want to treat these kind of email addresses as
invalid one, you can use the regexp validator to define
expression of email address.
The following example uses this approach and borrow the idea from Showing one message example to archive
this.
< form id = "regexpEmailForm" class = "form-horizontal" >
< div class = "form-group" >
< label class = "col-xs-3 control-label" > Email address</ label >
< div class = "col-xs-7" >
< input type = "text" class = "form-control" name = "email" />
</ div >
</ div >
</ form >
< script >
$ ( document ). ready ( function () {
$ ( '#regexpEmailForm' )
. formValidation ({
framework : 'bootstrap' ,
icon : {
valid : 'glyphicon glyphicon-ok' ,
invalid : 'glyphicon glyphicon-remove' ,
validating : 'glyphicon glyphicon-refresh'
},
fields : {
email : {
validators : {
emailAddress : {
message : 'The value is not a valid email address'
},
regexp : {
regexp : '^[^@\\s]+@([^@\\s]+\\.)+[^@\\s]+$' ,
message : 'The value is not a valid email address'
}
}
}
}
})
. on ( 'err.validator.fv' , function ( e , data ) {
// data.bv --> The FormValidation.Base instance
// data.field --> The field name
// data.element --> The field element
// data.validator --> The current validator name
if ( data . field === 'email' ) {
// The email field is not valid
data . element
. data ( 'fv.messages' )
// Hide all the messages
. find ( '.help-block[data-fv-for="' + data . field + '"]' ). hide ()
// Show only message associated with current validator
. filter ( '[data-fv-validator="' + data . validator + '"]' ). show ();
}
});
});
</ script >
