** Am trying to let the background color change when I do the email wrong but the color are not changing I also try to write the code to change background only but its not changing and there is no error at all **

Here you are:

var errorMassage = "";

function isEmail(inputMail) {
  var regex =
    /^([a-zA-Z0-9_. -]) \@(([a-zA-Z0-9-]) \.) ([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4}) $/;
  return regex.test(inputMail);
}

$("#signup").click(function() {
  if (isEmail($(inputMail).val()) == false) {
    $("#inputMail").css("background-color", "red");
  }

  alert(errorMassage);
});

<input id="signup" type="submit" value="SIGN UP" />
<div id="email">
  <input type="email" id="inputMail" placeholder="Email" />
  <img src="C:\Users\okazi\Desktop\TheKazim\photos\email.png" id="imageMail" />
</div>

Also, to change border color instead of background color replace $("#inputMail").css("background-color", "red"); with $("#inputMail").css("border-color", "red"); as below:

var errorMassage = "";

function isEmail(inputMail) {
  var regex =
    /^([a-zA-Z0-9_. -]) \@(([a-zA-Z0-9-]) \.) ([a-zA-Z0-9]{2,4}) $/;
  return regex.test(inputMail);
}

$("#signup").click(function() {
  if (isEmail($(inputMail).val()) == false) {
    $("#inputMail").css("border-color", "red");
  }

  alert(errorMassage);
});

<input id="signup" type="submit" value="SIGN UP" />
<div id="email">
  <input type="email" id="inputMail" placeholder="Email" />
  <img src="C:\Users\okazi\Desktop\TheKazim\photos\email.png" id="imageMail" />
</div>
