Description:
------------
Hostname can't contain underscore '_'.

I find RFC norme : this https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3986#section-2.3


Test script:
---------------
var_dump(filter_var('http://testscript.com',FILTER_VALIDATE_URL));
var_dump(filter_var('http://test_script.com',FILTER_VALIDATE_URL));

Expected result:
----------------
string 'http://testscript.com' 
string 'http://test_script.com' 

Actual result:
--------------
string 'http://testscript.com' 
boolean false

I think this explains it pretty good: https://stackoverflow.com/a/2183140/3749523

> for host names (or for URLs, which include a host name), [..] this is different, the relevant standard is RFC 1123, section 2.1 "Host Names and Numbers" which limits host names to letters-digits-hyphen.

just don't do that - countless developer hours are wasted in the past years because of such hostnames and then finally test in different browsers and find out after hhours that MSIE don't like cookies for hostnames which must not exist
