How can I properly validate for a unique email address?

I was trying to have my form validate an email address onblur or onkeyup, to check to see if the email address already exists in my database.

Not sure if I'm almost there with this code, something isn't working though. Right now, as soon as I start typing in the field, the input box for email is flagged based on how I would want it flagged if an email address was entered if it was already in my database. The else statement in AJAX doesn't work, and if I submit the form anyway, I get a message on the page from an error box I created mentioning a syntax error.

Also, part of my php is using mysqli and mysql, does that make a difference with trying to get this input field to validate?

The input id is email and the name is Email; I think I have that correct in my code, not entirely sure though.

PHP:

define('DB_NAME', 'database');
define('DB_USER', 'user');
define('DB_PASSWORD', 'password');
define('DB_HOST', 'host');

$first = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['First']));
$last = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Last']));
$city = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['City']));
$state = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['State']));
$country = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Country']));
$email = Trim(stripslashes($_POST['Email']));
$tempt = $_POST['tempt'];
$tempt2 = $_POST['tempt2'];


$link = mysqli_connect('host','user','password','members') or die("Error " . mysqli_error($link)); 
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($link, 'SELECT count(*) FROM members WHERE email =?');
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $_POST['Email']);
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
/* bind result variables */
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $count);
/* fetch value */
mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt);
mysqli_stmt_close($stmt);

if ($count == 0) {
    echo 'true';
}else{
    echo 'false';
}


if ($tempt == 'http://' && empty($tempt2)) {

    $error_message = '';
    $reg_exp = "/^[a-zA-Z0-9._%+-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9­-]+.[a-zA-Z.]{2,5}$/";

    if(!preg_match($reg_exp, $email)) {

        $error_message .= "<p>A valid email address is required.</p>";
    }
    if (empty($first)) {
        $error_message .= "<p>Please provide your first name.</p>";
    }
    if (empty($last)) {
        $error_message .= "<p>Please provide your last name.</p>";
    }

AJAX:

$(function() {
    if (valid != '') {
    $('form #response2').removeClass().addClass('error2')
        .html('' +valid).fadeIn('fast');
}

    var valid = '';

    $('#email').keyup(function() {
        $.post('script.php', { 'Email' : $(this).val() }, function(data) {
             if(data !== 'true') {
                $('#email').css('border','2px solid #ff0000');
                $('#email').css('background-color','#ffcece');
                valid += '<p>This email has already subscribed.</p>';
             }else{
                $('#email').css('background-color','green');
             }
        });
    });
});

You don't need to fetch all the emails to check whether the posted email already exist. U can do a simple count and test the amount of records. If its 0 then the email is not in the database

Something like this should work (not tested) :

HTML

<input type="text" name="txt_email" id="txt_email" />

Jquery

$(function() {
    $('#txt_email').blur(function() {
        $.post('location/to/script.php', { 'txt_email' : $(this).val() }, function(data) {
             if(data !== 'true') {
                $('#txt_email').css('background', 'red');
             }else{
                $('#txt_email').css('background', 'white');
             }
        });
    });
});

script.php

$link = mysqli_connect("myhost","myuser","mypassw","mybd") or die("Error " . mysqli_error($link)); 
$stmt = mysqli_prepare($link, 'SELECT count(*) FROM user WHERE email =?');
mysqli_stmt_bind_param($stmt, 's', $_POST['txt_email']);
mysqli_stmt_execute($stmt);
/* bind result variables */
mysqli_stmt_bind_result($stmt, $count);
/* fetch value */
mysqli_stmt_fetch($stmt);
mysqli_stmt_close($stmt);

if ($count == 0) {
    echo 'true';
}else{
    echo 'false';
}

$(function() {
    $('#txt_email').blur(function() {
        $.post('location/to/script.php', { 'txt_email' : $(this).val() }, function(data) {
             if(data !== 'true') {
                $('#txt_email').css('background', 'red');
             }else{
                $('#txt_email').css('background', 'white');
             }
        });
    });
});
