Sorry, but your problem does not imply a bug in PHP itself.  For a
list of more appropriate places to ask for help using PHP, please
visit http://www.php.net/support.php as this bug system is not the
appropriate forum for asking support questions.  Due to the volume
of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not
a bug.  The support channels will be able to provide an explanation
for you.

Thank you for your interest in PHP.

I am 99,5% sure, that this is not a support or development question.

When i use http://111:222@www.example.com - everything is fine,
but when i use http://111@111.111:222@www.example.com - curl reads it as if username is `111`, no password given and actual url (host) is `111.111:foksas@www.bugzilla.com`, which is wrong url parsing.

I'm not asking here for help or feedback (in some case ;)). Just want to make sure, that you actually read current "bogus" description and understand what is the problem. 

And sorry for spam if i am wrong ;).

since i got no reaction to the last comment, i'm opening this thing again.

Any kind of reaction would be nice... even 'stop spamming, it is really not a bug' will perfectly satisfy me ;)

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

1. You have to encode the @ using urlencoding
2. PHP just passes the string to curl so if there'S something wrong it's curl not PHP.

Really really sorry for that bogus. Next time ill probably trible-check the documentation. It will never happen again (i hope). Everything works just fine and thanks for extra fast reply, that helped a lot ;).
