How do I use jQuery to validate an email address?

// plain

jQuery provides a powerful way to validate email addresses. To use jQuery to validate an email address, you can use the $.validator.methods.email method. This method takes a single parameter, the email address to validate, and returns a boolean value indicating whether the email address is valid.

Example

var isValidEmail = $.validator.methods.email("example@example.com");
console.log(isValidEmail); // true

The code above will check if the email address example@example.com is valid and output true to the console.
