Stephen Chu commented on VALIDATOR-218:
---------------------------------------

To fix it,
change the PATH_PATTERN to include "(" and ")"

private static final String PATH_PATTERN = "/^(/[-\\w:@&?=+,.!/~*'%$_;\\(\\)]*)?$/";

> According to the RFC,
> uric          = reserved | unreserved | escaped
> reserved      = ";" | "/" | "?" | ":" | "@" | "&" | "=" | "+" |
>                       "$" | ","
> unreserved    = alphanum | mark
> mark          = "-" | "_" | "." | "!" | "~" | "*" | "'" |
>                       "(" | ")"
> "(", ")" belongs to mark and is a valid part of uric.
> Test case:
> UrlValidator validator = new UrlValidator({"http","https"}, UrlValidator.ALLOW_2_SLASHES);
> validator.isValid("http://somewhere.com/pathxyz/file(1).html");
