Jump to PostAre you using PHP 5.2 or above?
If so, you could use to validate the email address as a whole:
filter_var('bob@example.com', FILTER_VALIDATE_EMAIL);And then using strpos and substr extract the domain element and do a string comparison to restrict the domain.

@lixamaga it's not safe because a user can disable javascript and submit malicious data, a server side filter, as blocblue suggested, is a necessary requirement.
