Description:
------------
Hello,

I am currently testing script attached which is supposed to validate URLs

The URL as you can see is a valid URL but the 4 var_dump's done return false. Here is a test run result:

string(29) "http://my-domain.mydomain.com"
bool(false)
bool(false)
bool(false)
bool(false)

I tested my_domain.mydomain.com and it returned the domain correctly. while on the '-' dash sign it returns false


Test script:
---------------
<?php
        $URL = "http://my-domain.mydomain.com";
        var_dump($URL);
        var_dump(filter_var($URL, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL));
        var_dump(filter_var($URL, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, FILTER_FLAG_SCHEME_REQUIRED));
        var_dump(filter_var($URL, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, FILTER_FLAG_HOST_REQUIRED));
        var_dump(filter_var($URL, FILTER_VALIDATE_URL, FILTER_FLAG_SCHEME_REQUIRED | FILTER_FLAG_HOST_REQUIRED));
?>

Expected result:
----------------
return the URL in case it is valid even if it contains '-'

Actual result:
--------------
returns false

Are you really using 5.2.13? I definately am and this test script of yours returns the url as expected.

This was fixed after 5.2.13 was released, so yes, 5.2.13 would be affected.

yup i've upgraded my version of php a couple of days ago via compiling the latest php 5.2.13 source and this happened. and as you can see the fix came after the release
