// Email Address Checking



/* 1.1.4: Fixed a bug where upper ASCII characters (i.e. accented letters

international characters) were allowed.



1.1.3: Added the restriction to only accept addresses ending in two

letters (interpreted to be a country code) or one of the known

TLDs (com, net, org, edu, int, mil, gov, arpa), including the

new ones (biz, aero, name, coop, info, pro, museum).  One can

easily update the list (if ICANN adds even more TLDs in the

future) by updating the knownDomsPat variable near the

top of the function.  Also, I added a variable at the top

of the function that determines whether or not TLDs should be

checked at all.  This is good if you are using this function

internally (i.e. intranet site) where hostnames don't have to

conform to W3C standards and thus internal organization e-mail

addresses don't have to either.

Changed some of the logic so that the function will work properly

with Netscape 6.



1.1.2: Fixed a bug where trailing . in e-mail address was passing

(the bug is actually in the weak regexp engine of the browser; I

simplified the regexps to make it work).



1.1.1: Removed restriction that countries must be preceded by a domain,

so abc@host.uk is now legal.  However, there's still the

restriction that an address must end in a two or three letter

word.



1.1: Rewrote most of the function to conform more closely to RFC 822.
