Forum: Ruby on Rails Vaidated_presence_of :email field

This code is used to validate mail format: This is normal regular
expression format


=begin
  validates_format_of :email,
              :if => Proc.new { |employee| employee.email.nil?
employee.email.empty?},
                      :with => /^[A-Z0-9._%-]+@([A-Z0-9-]+\.)+[A-Z]
{2,4}$/i,
                      :message => "must be a valid email address"
=end

Is there a question there?
If it is not working it is probably because it is commented out.

What's the question? And where have you gotten this regex from...
firstly I'm confused why you're only allowing capital letters,
full-stops and underscores.... it's certainly possible to have a valid
email address with different characters than that.
