Bug #51192 [Csd]: FILTER_VALIDATE_URL will invalidate a hostname that includes '-'

Edit report at http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=51192&edit=1 ID: 51192 Updated by: aharvey@php.net Reported by: solar at azrael dot ws Summary: FILTER_VALIDATE_URL will invalidate a hostname that includes '-' Status: Closed Type: Bug Package: Filter related Operating System: linux PHP Version: 5.2.13 Assigned To: aharvey Block user comment: N New Comment: That also works as of 5.3.3 -- I actually own a couple of internationalised domains, so I'm aware of the issue. :) Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-08-13 08:39:26] ondrej@php.net Please be aware that IDN (PunyCode) url can contain two consecutive hyphens, ie. xn--hkyrky-ptac70bc.cz is OK as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-07 02:43:39] aharvey@php.net The fix for this hasn't been incorporated into any stable releases yet: it came after 5.2.13 was released and 5.3.2 was branched (and far too late in 5.3.2's release cycle to be ported across). Both versions 5.2.14 and 5.3.3 will include this bug fix. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-04-06 22:04:34] lupo at e-noise dot com I am experiencing the same behavior with PHP 5.3.2 on Mac OSX. When hostname contains hyphens filter_var() won't validate using the FILTER_VALIDATE_URL filter. The test code posted by "solar at azrael dot ws" produces the following output: string(18) "http://example.com" bool(false) string(19) "http://exa_mple.com" ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-03-03 10:26:58] aharvey@php.net This bug has been fixed in SVN.
