Method overview

void normalize();

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Description
`authors`	`nsIArray`	An array of `nsIFeedPerson` objects describing the authors of the feed or entry.
`categories`	`nsIArray`	An array of the categories found in a feed or entry. Note: The returned array will contain `nsIFeedCategory` objects, except that interface has not been implemented yet.
`contributors`	`nsIArray`	An array of `nsIFeedPerson` objects describing contributors to the feed or entry.
`fields`	`nsIWritablePropertyBag2`	Provides access to all the fields found in the document. Common Atom and RSS fields are normalized, including some namespaced extensions such as "dc:subject" and "content:encoded". Consumers can avoid normalization by checking the feed type and accessing specific fields. Common namespaces are accessed using prefixes, such as `get("dc:subject");`. See `nsIFeedResult.registerExtensionPrefix()` for more information about prefixes.
`id`	`AString`	A string that identifies the feed or entry. Not all feeds have these, but all major feed formats have IDs for each entry.
`link`	`nsIURI`	A URI containing the primary link for the feed or entry.
`links`	`nsIArray`	An array of all links for a feed or entry.
`rights`	`nsIFeedTextConstruct`	The feed or entry's rights or license text.
`title`	`nsIFeedTextConstruct`	The feed or entry's title. Keep in mind that some feeds have no title, and some use markup in their titles, so be cautious when decoding this attribute.
`updated`	`AString`	A string containing the date the feed or entry was last updated, in RFC822 form. This string is parsable by JavaScript and mail code.
