[jira] [Created] (VALIDATOR-339) URLValidator fails validating domain names with a trailing period, which are valid.

Alex Blume created VALIDATOR-339:
------------------------------------

             Summary: URLValidator fails validating domain names with a trailing period, which are valid.
                 Key: VALIDATOR-339
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/VALIDATOR-339
             Project: Commons Validator
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Framework
    Affects Versions: 1.4.0 Release
            Reporter: Alex Blume


The Apache Commons class org.apache.commons.validator.routines.UrlValidator method isValid() fails on URLS where the hostname has a trailing period, like "http://www.cnn.com./WORLD/?hpt=sitenav"

A trailing period on the hostname part of the URL is valid according to http://www.dns-sd.org/TrailingDotsInDomainNames.html and ANY URL I try does work successfully even when I put a trailing dot on the end of the domain name.

Can you add a fix in for this, so I can still use the URLValidator?

Thanks,
-Alex
