Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php . Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2009-08-08 14:32:15] matt dot farina at gmail dot com Description: ------------ FILTER_VALIDATE_URL doesn't actually validate a url. It passes the url through parse_url (which according to the documentation is not meant to validate a url). When tested against a test set this can be seen. Instead of this method PHP should use a regex or some other method to actually validate it. See http://api.drupal.org/api/function/valid_url/6 for an example that is to RFC 3986. I would hope for PHP 6 we can have it look for a valid IRL (with international characters) as well. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=49197&edit=1
