From: Adam Hardy I provide URL validation on a page which saves links for
users.
I put together the latest build of commons-validator (1.1.2) and struts (1.2) to see what the URL validation is like.
The class for server-side validation is in place, but the javascript doesn't exist.
It works very strictly, too strictly for me.
Most users will want to save links such as
http://www.google.com http://jakarta.apache.org/ http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=struts-user&m=105511005106573&w=2
This is definately a bug and they should have passed,
I haven't run the unit tests against it in some time do they still
pass ?
My guess is that it might not be expecting the '/' after the domain name. This would probably only require a small tweak
to the regular expression thats used.
I would apply any patches that were submitted
I'm running the tests on the Validator via ant and I get this exception straight away. I assume that the bad date is a test date that is meant to fail - but I can't figure out the reason why junit is falling over. I've only got brief experience with junit and I'm not finding the relevant code.
Thanks for any pointers, Adam
