email validation in checking for ".com" string

[peach255]

I have the following code that is giving me an error when I tried to add the piece on making sure the email has ".com" at the end. Otherwise, when I take out that piece of the code on checking for the string ".com", it works.
My code is as follow:
checkEmail = form.manemail.value

if ( (InStr(1,manemail,&quot;.com&quot;,vbTextCompare) = 0) || (checkEmail.indexOf('@') < 0) || ((checkEmail.charAt(checkEmail.length-4) != '.') && (checkEmail.charAt(checkEmail.length-3) != '.')))
{alert(&quot;You have entered an invalid email address. Please try again.&quot;
form.manemail.select();
return false;
}
.........

The field is called &quot;manemail&quot;. Thanks!
