Question

Hi all I have the follow code:

Linkify.addLinks(tv, Pattern.compile("http://www.abc.com"),"http://www.abc.com?m=signup");

Problem is I keep getting directed to the “http://www.abc.com” page instead of the sign-up page, anyone knows why?

Solution:
Thanks for the hint Noel, was able to solve it doing this.

TransformFilter transformFilter = new TransformFilter() {
    public final String transformUrl(final Matcher match, String url) {
        return "";
    }
};
Linkify.addLinks(tv, Pattern.compile("http://www.abc.com"),
        "http://www.abc.com/?m=signup",null ,transformFilter);

Update your tv content to contain the full link instead of just abc.com. In your addLinks() call, the last argument is the scheme which is usually something like http://, it’s not the address that the links will go to.

See the doc for more details. They also have an explanation at the top of what is expected.
