      <h1>Inline Form Validation</h1>

      <p>This example validates an email address format and uniqueness (only test@test.com will work) when
      the input fires a 'change' event.  </p>

      <p>Note that the "server side" implementation is mocked out using mockjax, so you can see the entire
        implementation. Click the "Source Code" tab to see the code.</p>
