As a workaround, any validation of an email field can be done via onSubmit Catalog Client Script: function onSubmit() { //Type appropriate comment here, and begin script below var newEmail = g_form.getValue(' ');

function isValidEmail(email) { return !!email.toString().match(/(^[a-z0-9]([0-9a-z\-_\.]*)@([0-9a-z_\-\.]*)([.][a-z]{3})$)|(^[a-z]([0-9a-z_\.\-]*)@([0-9a-z_\-\.]*)(\.[a-z]{2,5})$)/i); }

if(!isValidEmail(newEmail)) { g_form.addErrorMessage('Invalid email.'); return false; } else { return true; } }
