Question

. Here is my code. I am trying to validate email,but nothing is happening when clicking on validate button. Please reply. It's not showing message and i don't know why it is not showing. It is not a complicated code :

<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.1.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script>




    function validateEmail(email) {
  var re = /^(([^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@\"]+(\.[^<>()[\]\\.,;:\s@\"]+)*)|(\".+\"))@((\[[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\.[0-9]{1,3}\])|(([a-zA-Z\-0-9]+\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,}))$/;
  return re.test(email);
}

function validate() {

  $("#result").text("");
  var email = $("#email").val();
  if (validateEmail(email)) {
    $("#result").text(email + " is valid :)");
    $("#result").css("color", "green");
  } else {
    $("#result").text(email + " is not valid :(");
    $("#result").css("color", "red");
  }
  return false;
}


$("#validate").bind("click", validate);

    </script>


</head>





 <form>
  <p>Enter an email address:</p>
  <input id='email'>
  <button type='submit' id='validate' >Validate!</button>
</form>

<h2 id='result'></h2>

Answer 1

Try putting your script tag at the bottom of your body, or putting your bind code in the onLoad hook.

The way your code is structured at the moment, your bind code runs before the elements in the body are loaded, ie it binds to elements that don't exist. The reason it works for other people is probably because the load order is browser-dependant. So if re-ordering your code still doesn't work, it would be interesting to know what browser you are using.
