Hello,
I'm not a professional in regular expressions, but no other details mail address should normally match the following pattern:

Code:

*@*.*

just try the above regular expression and see if the code works, and if it does not the post back with the error you get , because if you post back with the error , the errors can be easy for us to identify what exactly is the wrong in the code and where.

Code:

[a-zA-Z][\-_a-zA-Z0-9]*(.[a-zA-Z][\-_a-zA-Z0-9]*)*@[a-zA-Z][\-_a-zA-Z0-9]*(.[a-zA-Z][\-_a

Hey,
Thank you, I laid this too (for url):

Code:

http:/ / [a-zA-Z ]*.[. \ -_/a-zA-Z] *. [a-zA-Z] (2,3)

But sometimes the url begins with https: / / I do not know how to put the s in options. Otherwise, the rest is it fair? Thanks for the kind of information and showing the present on the site.

Hello,
For the s you can add one after the http [s]? The? representing the operator "than a". If your URL for you lack of taking into account a lot of things (numbers, some special characters - those who replace the spaces by example and probably others I forget). I hope you are understanding what i am trying to say here. If you have any queries then do post back.

Hello,
Thank you for the "s". I wish we could return a url that includes only the domain name (http://ssDomaine.test.com) Then certain character who can not be used in the domain. But for now the code is working perfectly as I wished and I have no need of further code in this are. If i have any more difficulties then i will post back. Again, thanks for the help.
