Is anyone here familiar with the Zend Framework?
See https://magento.stackexchange.com/questions/54543/invalid-email-address-admi... for relevant.
We'd like to get the Zend Framework capable of recognising all valid Top Level Domains.
I see that particular complaint is from Feb 2015. After some poking around I found the current version of the Zend validation code. It was last updated in Feb 2018 and makes a heroic attempt to apply all of the character set rules for all of the TLDs they know about, which is most of them. The obvious question, of course, is why they don't just validate a domain name by looking it up and seeing if it resolves. https://github.com/zendframework/zend-validator/blob/master/src/Hostname.php R's, John
