This pull request changes the URL check for http downloads. Rather than using the previous REGEX, it uses the URL constructor built in to JavaScript. The previous REGEX had some weaknesses, including any URLs that contained square brackets (and probably some other characters as well). The new method uses the URL constructor in JavaScript. Rather than checking with a REGEX, it attempts to construct a new URL object using the provided URL string within a try/catch statement. This will throw an error on a malformed URL, which then returns false. This process is illustrated below.
