URL with parenthese is not valid
--------------------------------
Key: VALIDATOR-298
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-298
Project: Commons Validator
Issue Type: Bug
Reporter: yuhang
The class org.apache.commons.validator.UrlValidator rejects certain valid URL
According to RFC1738:
-------------
HTTP
httpurl = "http://"; hostport [ "/" hpath [ "?" search ]]
hpath = hsegment *[ "/" hsegment ]
hsegment = *[ uchar | ";" | ":" | "@" | "&" | "=" ]
search = *[ uchar | ";" | ":" | "@" | "&" | "=" ]
-------------
the httpurl is allowed to contain the parenthese("("|")").
But the urlvalidator reject it.
e.g.
url: www.google.com/abv(de)
urlvalidator.isValid(url) = false;
but it's a valid url,in fact.
