delete all characters after

[randdevin]

Customer is wanting to force an email address to use a certain FQDN.

they only want the customer to enter everything before the @.

 

Issue is some people can't read and they enter the full email address.

So were looking at removing the complexity for the end users and create a rule that is smart enough to remove the @ and everything after.

 

Thanks for your help.

return Field("Email").replace(/@.*/, '');

Thanks step...

What you supplied is always assuming that they supply the @.

See some users know to only enter everything before the @ while others do not.

Not sure I follow. If they don't supply the '@domain.com', it doesn't need to be removed.

 

return 'jdoe'.replace(/@.*/, '');           // returns jdoe
return 'jdoe@gmail.com'.replace(/@.*/, ''); // returns jdoe

That is correct, but I was looking to have the javascript add the @domain.com all in a single step.

Oh okay, you can still do that:

return Field("Email").replace(/@.*/, '') + '@domain.com';

 

Or if you want to do it all from within the replace method:

return Field("Email").replace(/(.)(@.*)?$/, '$1@domain.com');

Thats perfect!

Thanks
