Hey Thanitsak,

I don't know if you have resolved the issue of not getting a validation warning when the @ symbol is omitted from the email address on the contact page. If you have followed the video exactly as the teacher's and you're still not getting the validation alert, you might wanna try your workspace link in Google Chrome as suggested in this post

Hope this helps.

That is html5 form functionality. It has to do with the type of the field in the form. So to enable it your email field in your form should be 

    <input name="email" type="email" placeholder="Email Address" required>

in the above instance type should trigger basic html5 verification. You can also add a required field which means the field has to be filled out.

hey carlos, I have the field type of email (like in the input tag above), yet I did not get a warning alert for excluding the @ sign
