Validation of URL

[dande Anusha]

Hi ,

we got requirement to check URL validation for one field.

I have written the below script , but it is always giving invalid URL (i am giving "https://development.service-now.com " for testing)

var url = g_form.getValue('u_link_to_training_materials');
//var re = /^(http[s]?:\/\/){0,1}(www\.){0,1}[a-zA-Z0-9\.\-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,5}[\.]{0,1}/;
var re = /^(?:http(s)?:\/\/)?[\w.-]+(?:\.[\w\.-]+)+[\w\-\._~:/?#[\]@!\$&'\(\)\*\+,;=.]+$/ ;
if (!re.test(url)) {
alert("invalid url");
g_form.disableAttachments();
return false;
}

Please help me on this if anyone is having an idea on this type of requirement

@Anusha dande 

Did you get a chance to check on the regex I shared.

Please test using that

For that the value you gave won't match -> https://pepsi

Hi,

So that variable/field is of html type

So update as this

var url = g_form.getValue('u_link_to_training_materials');

var res = url.toString().match(/(http[s]?:\/\/){0,1}(www\.){0,1}[a-zA-Z0-9\.\-]+\.[a-zA-Z]{2,5}[\.]{0,1}/g);

if (res == null)) {
alert("invalid url");

g_form.disableAttachments();
    return false;
}
