Javascript custom email validation for company email only, Unbounce page

We write a simple Javascript custom email validation that allows only company emails and it was implemented on Unbounce landing pages. We use pattern, oninvalid and onchange attributes. We set regex (^[a-zA-Z0-9.%+-]+@(?!gmail.com)(?!yahoo.com)(?!hotmail.com)(?!yahoo.co.in)(?!aol.com)(?!live.com)(?!outlook.com)[a-zA-Z0-9-]+.[a-zA-Z0-9-.]{2,61}$) to validate the email pattern and set the custom validity message for oninvalid attribute with setCustomValidity() method of the HTMLObjectElement interface sets a custom validity message for the element, and finally onchange attribute we set the setCustomValidity() method to empty.

How to validate the email field to allow only company email?

With HTML5, we can do the email input field validation with pattern, setCustomValidity method easily. If you write the code like below, it will not allow the email that contains gmail.com, yahoo.com, hotmail.com, yahoo.co.in, aol.com, live.com and outlook.com

<input id="Email" name="Email" type="email" required pattern="^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@(?!gmail.com)(?!yahoo.com)(?!hotmail.com)(?!yahoo.co.in)(?!aol.com)(?!live.com)(?!outlook.com)[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+.[a-zA-Z0-9-.]{2,61}$" oninvalid="setCustomValidity('Please enter business email')" onchange="try{setCustomValidity('')}catch(e){}')">

Similarly, we can add custom Javascript into the Unbounce like below, which will allow only company emails. The Javascript code is like below:

<script>
/* Allow only company emails */
document
  .getElementById("Email")
  .setAttribute(
    "pattern",
    "^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@(?!gmail.com)(?!yahoo.com)(?!hotmail.com)(?!yahoo.co.in)(?!aol.com)(?!live.com)(?!outlook.com)[a-zA-Z0-9_-]+.[a-zA-Z0-9-.]{2,61}$"
  ).setAttribute(
    "oninvalid",
    "setCustomValidity('Please enter business email')"
  ).setAttribute("onchange", "try{setCustomValidity('')}catch(e){}')");
</script>

** If you email id is different then change the “Email” in the above code.
