Angular pattern Validator is not working as expected












1















To allow only emails with TLD (ending with .de or .com) I want to use the following pattern:



^[a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$


I tested this regular expression on regexr.com a couple of times and it worked good, for example it did not match with test@test.



But the Angular Validator says no error for test@test with this pattern Validator:



Validators.pattern('^[a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$')


How is that possible?

You have to escape the backslash, since it's a string.



'^[a-z0-9._%+-]+@[a-z0-9.-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,4}$'
