    Tech Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed

    Filling out an online form which asked for the postback URL


    URL not found: http://www.blahblah.site\thankyou.html, Invalid URI: The hostname could not be parsed


    Two other fields ask for 404 and thank-you URLs. I put the same page as thank you as I haven?t set up the site. How do I get around this error?

    It might be having trouble with you using the backslash instead of the front slash in your url.

    http://www.blahblah.site\thankyou.html should be http://www.blahblah.site/thankyou.html

    The backslash can act as an escape character and php could read that as \t or a tab character

    This is a test using the parse_url function in php.

    Code:
    Start of test.
    
    Url to parse=http://www.blahblah.site\thankyou.html
    Host= [url]www.blahblah.site_hankyou.html[/url]
    
    Url to parse=http://www.blahblah.site/thankyou.html
    Host= [url]www.blahblah.site[/url]
    
    End of test.

      Just a bump to see if my reply solved the issue or not.

        No. That was a typo when posting it here

          Well, without seeing the actual data involved I don't know what would cause it.

            Sorry, was in a rush. I’m going to try again and see if it’s the wrong syntax

              https://danielmiessler.com/study/url-uri/

              What are you doing when you get that error?

              Is that to a return page from a post cgi?
              Use the real page name (URL(location)) and not the rewrite or maybe it is the protocol http/https (redirection)?

                I remember doing it but not where or why. The pain of amnesia. I plan to research this weekend. It has to do with payment processing but that’s all I can tell from the URL.

                This new tablet keyboard has new things and moved everything around. My backslash moved so I might have hit the wrong key. Apple sucks for changing the keyboard layout in the new iOS.

                  Found it. My information was correctly entered. The data was on the page when I visited. But they all 404?d as I hadn?t created them. Did and that?s all set. Thanks to everyone.

                  Now I need my BIC and UBO numbers. Foreign banks are so much fun

                    Call the bank Monday. US banks use ABA and SWIFT, or; BIC is bank identifier code
                    https://transferwise.com/us/swift-codes/
                    ^^ this lookup worked
                    Verify this with your bank tell them it is for international wire (SWIFT) domestically, within the US FED, ACH is used.

                    UBO is 'Declaration for Ultimate Beneficial Ownership (UBO) / Controlling Persons ' statement not a assigned number see# 7 at the bottom of this form UBO-1? IDK, I found this ask if this is what they mean by a number.
