#22423 [NEW]: parse_url() -> file:// not parsed correctly

From: sbriesen at gmx dot de Operating system: SuSE 8.1 PHP version: 4.3.1 PHP Bug Type: *URL Functions Bug description: parse_url() -> file:// not parsed correctly $x=parse_url('file:///any/path/file.ext'); gives you: Array ( [scheme] => file [host] => /any/path/file.ext ) $x=parse_url('file://localhost/any/path/file.ext'); gives you: Array ( [scheme] => file [host] => localhost [path] => /any/path/file.ext ) the first one is definitively parsed wrong!!! in a file:// url, the 'host' is optional and is located between :// and the first slash. scheme://[[user[:pass]@]host]/path so $x=parse_url('file:///any/path/file.ext'); *should* give you: Array ( [scheme] => file [path] => /any/path/file.ext ) and nothing else! btw: have you ever seen a 'host' with slashes? ;-) btw^2: a 'join_url' (or similar) should be also available (as the counterpart to 'parse_url'). Yes, I know, I can write such function for myself in plain PHP. But there should be always the opposite counterpart available as a native PHP function! btw^3: not all file-functions are capable to handle file:// urls correctly. I know, that is not your problem... ;-) I will try to find all that functions and create a seperate bugreport. regards, Stefan -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=22423&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=globals PHP 3 support discontinued: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=php3 Daylight Savings: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=dst IIS Stability: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=isapi Install GNU Sed: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=22423&r=gnused
