Hi i want to validate url in jquery so i am using that regex expression

if(/^(http|https|ftp):\/\/[a-z0-9]+([\-\.]{1}[a-z0-9]+)*\.[a-z]{2,5}(:[0-9]{1,5})?(\/.*)?$/i.test(url)){
} else {
   $('#peUrl-'+index).prev('.errorHint').text("Please enter valid URL");    
}

But that regex expression is sometimes not working what is that issue in expression?

What URLs are failing? – karina Apr 26 '16 at 04:44
Perhaps your regex is not complex enough. See https://mathiasbynens.be/demo/url-regex – karina Apr 26 '16 at 04:47

Because there is no protocol for that URL and your regex appears to require one – karina Apr 26 '16 at 05:02
I provide url with protocal https in above url – Balaguru Murugan Apr 26 '16 at 05:17
