#19481 [NEW]: DB doesn't allow for '@' within password (p@ssword)

From: rob@euglug.org Operating system: Linux PHP version: 4.2.3 PHP Bug Type: PEAR related Bug description: DB doesn't allow for '@' within password (p@ssword) If you have an '@' in your password, DB.php parses that as the token that separates the user:pass@host of the DSN. It should preferrably allow passwords with '@'. I can send a patch, but what is the preferred way of handling something like this? Asking the user to put the pass in quotes? Or somehow determining what is the separator token and what is the password? -- Edit bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=19481&edit=1 -- Try a CVS snapshot: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=trysnapshot Fixed in CVS: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=fixedcvs Fixed in release: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=alreadyfixed Need backtrace: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=needtrace Try newer version: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=oldversion Not developer issue: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=support Expected behavior: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=notwrong Not enough info: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=notenoughinfo Submitted twice: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=submittedtwice register_globals: http://bugs.php.net/fix.php?id=19481&r=globals
