For the special case (I agree) of email-validation that should be possible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-09-27 08:47:09] aharvey@php.net Fair call; I'll prosecute the argument for NO_RECURSE elsewhere! The limit on address length is 320 octets per RFC 2821 (64 octet local-part + 1 octet "@" + 255 octet domain), so we may as well set the limit there for now. (If RFC 5336 becomes widespread, that may need to be revisited, but let's cross that bridge when we come to it.) Any system that's so stack constrained for that to be an issue is likely to have other problems anyway. :) Fix for 5.3 and trunk forthcoming, just as soon as I write a test. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2010-09-27 07:24:16] rasmus@php.net Perhaps a simple pre-filter before we hit the regex. You can't actually have an 8k email address. There are length limits both before and after the @. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ The remainder of the comments for this report are too long.
