I've uploaded a file to the Google Group which contrasts the two libraries, and tests are easily added; just copy of of the lines with "new EmailAddressValidatorTest" and edit the new line as necessary. (The second argument specifies whether you expect the address to validate.)<br /> <br /> The file can be found at<br /> http://php-email-address-validation.googlegroups.com/web/alternativeTestFormat.phphttp://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by Dave Child ( <a href="http://www.addedbytes.com">http://www.addedbytes.com</a> )<br /><br />Hi Luke. I'm not terribly good when it comes to responding to queries like yours. I've read it several times, but it's not a quick answer, so it goes in the "remember to do this later" section of brain. From where it presumably vanishes.<br /> <br /> I don't know anything about the PHP Filter extension. I don't know how the "validate_email" filter specifically works. Certainly it would be easy to run the filter against the test cases in this project to see if it passed and failed correctly.http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by Luke Armstrong ( <a href="http://www.lukearmstrong.co.uk">http://www.lukearmstrong.co.uk</a> )<br /><br />Over 2 Months and still no response?http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by Luke Armstrong ( <a href="http://www.lukearmstrong.co.uk">http://www.lukearmstrong.co.uk</a> )<br /><br />What advantages/disadvantages would this script have over the recently released PHP Filter extension? As far as I am aware it is bundled with php, and enabled by default, on all versions newer than 5.2.0 - but I believe it can be installed for any version of PHP?<br /> <br /> http://uk2.php.net/manual/en/intro.filter.phphttp://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by baonam ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />i'm a newbie. your code is really difficult for me to understand, but i will try my best, i read almost comments, 4 years for a good function, great, i would be very happy if i were you, there are many comments !. At last, i want to say simple thing, thankshttp://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by Gilles ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Hi, great code! i was wondering if anything has been updated lately...http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by Tim Timalsina ( <a href="http://timalsina.com">http://timalsina.com</a> )<br /><br />Hi Dave,<br /> Fantastic tool for its purpose. I am having one issue though. Is there any way you could custom license this for me asa GPL 2 version. I am going to integrate it to another GPL 2 platform and I am having license compatibility issue as the platform only accepts code that is GPL 2 licensed.<br /> <br /> - Timhttp://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/http://www.addedbytes.com/article/email-address-validation-v2/comments/Comment by Jens Thomas ( <a href=""></a> )<br /><br />Thanks for the validation script. Unfortunately it will find an email address like<br /> <br /> hello@asd.c <br /> <br /> valid, which is wrong from my point of view?! As far a I am concerned there should be a test which check whether the last part of the domain portion is within 2 to 4.
