I'm trying to create a form that validates the email address. Either the submit button is not working or else it is the email validation script that is causing the problem. I'm new to coding and need some help. Thank you in advance!

First, there is an error inside the validEmail function. Try this instead :





function validEmail(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);
};





Also, you need to add an event listener on the form.
