Hi,

First I would like to say I really like this book. Thanks.

I am having trouble with the reusable function. The email address is coming out false everything looks okay to me.

Code:

@using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

@functions {
    public static bool IsValidEmail(string s)
    {
        string pattern = @"^[\w-\.]+@ ([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]{2,4}$";
        return Regex.IsMatch(s,pattern);
    }
}

Please help. Thanks.

You have a space after the @ sign in your pattern variable. Remove that and it should work.

Need to download code?
