RFC1738 says: httpurl = "http://"; hostport [ "/" hpath [ "?" search ]] hostport = host [ ":" port ] host = hostname | hostnumber hostname = *[ domainlabel "." ] toplabel domainlabel = alphadigit | alphadigit *[ alphadigit | "-" ] alphadigit toplabel = alpha | alpha *[ alphadigit | "-" ] alphadigit alphadigit = alpha | digit hostnumber = digits "." digits "." digits "." digits port = digits alpha = lowalpha | hialpha digit = "0" | "1" | "2" | "3" | "4" | "5" | "6" | "7" | "8" | "9" lowalpha = "a" | "b" | "c" | "d" | "e" | "f" | "g" | "h" | "i" | "j" | "k" | "l" | "m" | "n" | "o" | "p" | "q" | "r" | "s" | "t" | "u" | "v" | "w" | "x" | "y" | "z" hialpha = "A" | "B" | "C" | "D" | "E" | "F" | "G" | "H" | "I" | "J" | "K" | "L" | "M" | "N" | "O" | "P" | "Q" | "R" | "S" | "T" | "U" | "V" | "W" | "X" | "Y" | "Z" Unfortunately, we do not have a real URL parser: we only look for "http://";, and then accept any char that could be part of a URL, not taking into account the fact that some of them (like '!') can only appear in some specific parts of the URL. Does someone know of an URL parsing code, somewhere ? Note that this would solve this particular problem, but that http://www.foo.bar/baz! is a valid URL, as it would be with ',' or '.' and the end. This one is also valid http://www.foo.bar/! hpath = hsegment *[ "/" hsegment ] hsegment = *[ uchar | ";" | ":" | "@" | "&" | "=" ] uchar = unreserved | escape unreserved = alpha | digit | safe | extra extra = "!" | "*" | "'" | "(" | ")" | "," safe = "$" | "-" | "_" | "." | "+" hex = digit | "A" | "B" | "C" | "D" | "E" | "F" | "a" | "b" | "c" | "d" | "e" | "f" escape = "%" hex hex We can do our best to correctly parse URLs, but I guess that the only safe way depends on the sender: use < and > around the URL. -- Xavier Nodet "They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety." - Benjamin Franklin, 1759. ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _______________________________________________ Mahogany-Developers mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/mahogany-developers
