Re: normalize gives malformed url exception

[Lewis John Mcgibbney <le...@gmail.com>]

Hi Alex,
normalizers.normalize takes parameters (String urlString, String scope)
In the code you provide is the url object of type String? Should it not be
imgUrl being passed as the first argument?
Also can you put it in to more context as to why you are using the
URLNormalizers.SCOPE_FETCHER scope?
Thanks
Lewis
