Hi Everyone, I've been working on a new RFC for a while now, and time has come to present it to a wider audience.
Last year, I learnt that PHP doesn't have built-in support for parsing URLs according to any well established standards (RFC 1738 or the WHATWG URL living standard), since the parse_url() function is optimized for performance instead of correctness. In order to improve compatibility with external tools consuming URLs (like browsers), my new RFC would add a WHATWG compliant URL parser functionality to the standard library. The API itself is not final by any means, the RFC only represents how I imagined it first. You can find the RFC at the following link: https://wiki.php.net/rfc/url_parsing_api Regards, Máté
