What does "not work" mean? Does it reject valid addresses? Allow
invalid addresses? It is at least scrupulously complex. :-)
How about simply testing for something basic like /^[^\...@[^\s]+$/
and leaving it at that? You can't trust that your client-side script
has validated the string before being sent, so you have to do whatever
processing you require on the server anyway.
The fact that the address is well-formed (per RFC 5321 and RFC 5322)
doesn't mean it is valid (as in working or exists).
If you are expecting a comma separated list, consider something like:
var addresses = 'b...@foo.com, a...@foo.com, st...@bar.com';
var valid;
$((addresses).split(',')).each(
(function() {
var re = /^[^\...@[^\s]+$/;
return function(i, s) {
valid = re.test(jQuery.trim(s));
return valid;
};
})());
alert(valid);
