[ http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-205?page=comments#action_12452193 ] Niall Pemberton commented on VALIDATOR-205: -------------------------------------------
The regular expression in RFC 3986 is already being used by UrlValidator - see the URL_PATTERN static variable. Also reading RFC 3986 [1] it has the following definition for path: "segment" and "segment-nz" make up the path. Both of these are composed of any number of "pchar" characters which is defined as one of the following three categories "unreserved", "pct-encoded" or "sub-delims" "sub-delims" includes the semi-colon i.e. ";" So from what I can see the change you made, fixed the problem and we can close this as "invalid"?
