Summary: FILTER_VALIDATE_URL should not fail URL's that use
IDN
Status: Open
Type: Bug
Package: Filter related
Operating System: All
PHP Version: Irrelevant
Block user comment: N
Private report: N
New Comment:
To be completely clear, filter_var(..., FILTER_VALIDATE_URL) already
handles internationalised domain names in their canonical Punycode
form. I guess what this is really going to boil down to is whether
filter_var() should also support IDN when it's represented in a
Unicode character set, given that's really an intermediate
representation for the user's benefit.
My initial feeling on that is "not by default", but I guess we could
look at a flag for that filter (FILTER_FLAG_IDN_UTF8 or similar) which
enabled support for a particular character set (probably UTF-8).
Thoughts?

My initial test was done using PHP 5.3.3
The lack of IDN support is still present in 5.3.3
All of Mathias' additional test cases, but the last one are however
handled correctly. I.e. this one is approved:
http://a.b--c.de/
It should fail. That's probably an edge case, though. The lack of IDN
support is the worst problem.

mathias, you are not testing the current code. Try it with 5.3.3.

I was trying to post a comment here, but it wouldnât let me (âERROR:
Please do not
SPAM our bug systemâ), probably because of all the âURLsâ I was
trying to post.
Oh well, hereâs the comment I tried to post:

Description:
------------
If an URL uses IDN it should be considered valid.
The test script outputs three blank lines. It should output the URL's.
Examples from http://mathiasbynens.be/demo/url-regex
Test script:
---------------
<?php
echo filter_var('http://âªdf.ws/123', FILTER_VALIDATE_URL);
echo "\n";
echo filter_var('http://â.ws/', FILTER_VALIDATE_URL);
echo "\n";
echo filter_var('http://â¡.ws/䨹', FILTER_VALIDATE_URL);
echo "\n";
Expected result:
----------------
http://âªdf.ws/123
http://â.ws/
http://â.ws/http://â¡.ws/䨹
Actual result:
--------------
\n
