There was a bug in URLValidator that made it fail for even simple URLs like http://www.google.com, so I had to dump it and use a regular expression mask instead. (The URLValidator has since been patched and works fine). Since javascript can easily do regular expressions, you can use this regular expression to check your URLs. I went through the HTTP URL specification and attempted to include everything I could see for the regexp. The only problem is that it allows any protocol, even fictional ones (like joke://abc.com/). (Yes, this is a very long regular expression. Hopefully, it will come out on one line). ^[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9\+\-\.]*:(//(([a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.!~\*'\(\)%;:&\+\$,]*@)?(([a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9-]*\.)*[a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*|[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+)(:[0-9]+)?)(/[a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.!~\*'\(\)%:@&=\+\$,]*(;[a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.!~\*'\(\)%:@&=\+\$,]*)*(/[a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.!~\*'\(\)%:@&=\+\$,]*(;[a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.!~\*'\(\)%:@&=\+\$,]*)*)*)?)(\?[;/\?:@&=\+\$,a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.!~\*'\(\)%]+)?$ - -chris -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFFwMzF9CaO5/Lv0PARAsdjAJ0W+zKn2BMmqCzfCNgXfIKcDpld2wCfZzUu 79SZk6zCam4Na9xhGuA6V0E= =w1MJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
