Using/ in discussion does crash the discussion

The lack of PCRE unicode support should just make it fall back to non-PCRE parsing, which isn't good for non-ascii characters, but you still wouldn't see spaces and symbols.

I think i found the bug

php -a
php > echo preg_replace('`[\s_[^\w\d]]`', '-', 'lots of spaces ');
lots of spaces 

That is not a valid expression for what you want.

x00

I will file an issue. should be

'`[\s_]|[^\w\d]`'

you can simplify to just

'`[^\w\d]`'

Linc

balls.

There are automobiles that are good for gnu who like to get dirty in the shed with them, and there are carts that raccoons get on a lease to drive around the suburbs with.

@Anonymoos
I do not know if that is an expression. And if Google translates this right. Looks like you have a zoo.

@Linc
I do not see addons. Where can I find these?

@peregrine

I can read wikipedia about what ssh is. But realy I do not know.

As far as I understand you ask me to give a direction pcretest -C
somewhere.

How can I do that?
Can I do that with filezilla?

Please take in account that I´am nota php programmer. And I have NO knowledge of Linux operating system, and appache server.
And I´am reading an writing in this forum with Google translate open.
And searching the internet to try to understand what we are talking about here.

@link, must I try to give other information?

Or do I understand well that @x00 has found the problem code

elja

In the phpinfo I did find this :
PCRE (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions) Support enabled

peregrine

As far as I understand you ask me to give a direction pcretest -C somewhere.

ignore my instructions about pcretext. it won't help anyway.

But, what you could do is cut and paste this code in your vanilla directory and call it testurl.php
and then run it from your browser and post your results.

It will give you some insights into the problem.

yes, x00 found a bug with platforms without unicode support.

testurl.php

<?php

$Mixed = "/discussion/with a     slash  ///";

$Mixed = strip_tags(html_entity_decode($Mixed, ENT_COMPAT, 'UTF-8'));
echo "stripped: $Mixed <br />";
// Test for Unicode PCRE support
// On non-UTF8 systems this will result in a blank string.
$UnicodeSupport = (preg_replace('`[\pP]`u', '', 'P') != '');
// Convert punctuation, symbols, and spaces to hyphens
if ($UnicodeSupport) {
$Mixed = preg_replace('`[\pP\pS\s]`u', '-', $Mixed);
echo "unicode: $Mixed<br />";
} else {
$Mixed = preg_replace('`[\s_[^\w\d]]`', '-', $Mixed);
echo "NOT unicode: $Mixed<br />";
}
// Lowercase, no trailing or repeat hyphens
$Mixed = preg_replace('`-+`', '-', strtolower($Mixed));
echo "no repeat hypen: $Mixed<br />";
$Mixed = trim($Mixed, '-');
echo "trimmed: $Mixed<br />";

elja

Output:

stripped: /discussion/with a slash ///
NOT unicode: /discussion/with a slash ///
no repeat hypen: /discussion/with a slash ///
trimmed: /discussion/with a slash ///

Can you tell me what this tells you? This output?

elja

stripped: /discussion/with a slash /// NOT unicode: /discussion/with a slash /// no repeat hypen: /discussion/with a slash /// trimmed: /discussion/with a slash ///

I believe it means as x00 surmised the url function is causing you an issue.
And there may be more than one bug, your host server software pcre compilation (full pcre support is not enabled correctly and vanilla code has a bug).

this is the output that works with php with pcre with unicode support.

stripped: /discussion/with a slash ///
unicode: -discussion-with-a-----slash-----
no repeat hypen: -discussion-with-a-slash-
trimmed: discussion-with-a-slash

x00

@elja you shouldn't normally do this but you can patch library/core/class.format.php for the time being.

search for the line

$Mixed = preg_replace('`[\s_[^\w\d]]`', '-', $Mixed);

and replace with

$Mixed = preg_replace('`[^\w\d]`', '-', $Mixed);

elja

Thank you @x00 .
I did change the code on the test website
http://40pkus-reisgenoot.allerbest.nl/

It looks alright now.

elja

Another question.
I just now understand that it has something to do with Perl
In my hosting settings I see :
Services Perl support
That is not On for this subdomain.
I can put this to On.
Could that be helpfull?

elja

Switch Perl setting to On did not help.

I have other settings:

Apache ASP support
SSI support
PHP support
CGI support
Perl support
Python support
FastCGI support
ColdFusion support

Does one of these settings have to do with it?
At first only the PHP support was On.
And now I only did put the Perl support On

x00

No. There is nothing further you can do you don't manage the server.

BTW blocking slashes is the default behaviour fro Apache so nothign usual about it.

elja

thanks x00
