Here is a simple email validation function I got from a google search:
var ret = validateEmail("badData");
alert ("ret: " + ret);
function validateEmail(email) {
var re = /\S+@\S+\.\S+/;
return re.test(email);
}
When testing it, I get this error...
Parser Error

If helpful, this is in a razor view page with <script src="~/js/jquery-2.1.3.min.js"></script>
Thanks very much if someone can advise how to fix or a better way to validate proper email address format.
