the only thing that works here is the confirm email, it forces both fields to match, but you can still move to the next field and even submit the form without a valid email address. You can type in one letter and it will still let it go to the next field. Can someone tell me why this script isnt working?
<script language = "javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
function validateEmail(addr,man,db) {
if (addr == '' && man) {
if (db) alert('email address is mandatory');
return false;
}
var invalidChars = '\/'\\ ";:?!()[]\{\}^|';
for (i=0; i<invalidChars.length; i++) {
if (addr.indexOf(invalidChars.charAt(i),0) > -1) {
if (db) alert('email address contains invalid characters');
return false;
}
}
for (i=0; i<addr.length; i++) {
if (addr.charCodeAt(i)>127) {
if (db) alert("email address contains non ascii characters.");
return false;
}
}
var atPos = addr.indexOf('@',0);
if (atPos == -1) {
if (db) alert('email address must contain an @');
return false;
}
if (atPos == 0) {
if (db) alert('email address must not start with @');
return false;
}
if (addr.indexOf('@', atPos + 1) > - 1) {
if (db) alert('email address must contain only one @');
return false;
}
if (addr.indexOf('.', atPos) == -1) {
if (db) alert('email address must contain a period in the domain name');
return false;
}
if (addr.indexOf('@.',0) != -1) {
if (db) alert('period must not immediately follow @ in email address');
return false;
}
if (addr.indexOf('.@',0) != -1){
if (db) alert('period must not immediately precede @ in email address');
return false;
}
if (addr.indexOf('..',0) != -1) {
if (db) alert('two periods must not be adjacent in email address');
return false;
}
var suffix = addr.substring(addr.lastIndexOf('.')+1);
if (suffix.length != 2 && suffix != 'com' && suffix != 'net' && suffix != 'org' && suffix != 'edu' && suffix != 'int' && suffix != 'mil' && suffix != 'gov' & suffix != 'arpa' && suffix != 'biz' && suffix != 'aero' && suffix != 'name' && suffix != 'coop' && suffix != 'info' && suffix != 'pro' && suffix != 'museum') {
if (db) alert('invalid primary domain in email address');
return false;
}
return true;
}

Try changing your event handler construction from:
onblur=if (!validateEmail(email,1,1))
To
onblur = "return validateEmail(email1,1,1);"
