Another 'Invalid Template' error ... there are tons out there, and I thought I'd find my answer, but no.

The hierarchy (nested) grid below works great until I uncomment line 58 or 67.  Then I get the invalid template error.

I've escaped my hash symbols on line 52 as I read in a ton of other posts.

Does anyone spot anything amiss???

TIA

I'VE FIGURED IT OUT!

After three days of staring at this I started commenting out code line-by-line.  The culprit was line 51 - the Email column.  That led me to check my view model for the attributes, and sure enough:

        [Required]
        [StringLength(100)]
        [RegularExpression(CommonConstants.EmailRegex, ErrorMessage = "Please enter a valid email address.")]
        public string Email { get; set; }

And in CommonConstants.cs:

        public const string EmailRegex = @"^[-!#$%&'*+/0-9=?A-Z^_a-z{|}~](\.?[-!#$%&'*+/0-9=?A-Z^_a-z{|}~])*@[a-zA-Z](-?[a-zA-Z0-9])*(\.[a-zA-Z](-?[a-zA-Z0-9])*)+$";

GOOD GRIEF!
