Android :: Handle Textview Link Click In My App
Nov 8, 2009
I'm currently rendering HTML input in a TextView like so:
CODE:......................................
The HTML being displayed is provided to me via an external resource, so I cannot change things around as I will, but I can, of course, do some regex tampering with the HTML, to change the href value, say, to something else.
What I want is to be able to handle a link click directly from within the app, rather than having the link open a browser window. Is this achievable at all? I'm guessing it would be possible to set the protocol of the href-value to something like "myApp://", and then register something that would let my app handle that protocol. If this is indeed the best way, I'd like to know how that is done, but I'm hoping there's an easier way to just say, "when a link is clicked in this textview, I want to raise an event that receives the href value of the link as an input parameter"

In my Android application I have to display article title on corresponding category.
I wish to display the output in following format:
[HIGH]Languages Programming --- Category name on Horizontal listview[/HIGH]

There is a task to make smt like todo list on widget (with dinamic number of elements), how to organize this list for click support on this elements. I only found how add click event on one widget layout element (with setOnClickPendingIntent), and how send text to widget element TextView. But it's unclear how handle click events for sub-elemets, or how get click coordinates(or item) where was click event. I saw widget "Agenda widget" - and it work fine with clicking on different calendar rows.

I can't figure this out. Some apps have a EditText (textbox) which, when you touch it and it brings up the on-screen keyboard, the keyboard has a "Search" button instead of an enter key.I want to implement this. How can I implement that Search button and detect press of the Search button?

My activity has a LinearLayout which contains a TableLayout and a WebView. The TableLayout has button and a TexView. This is created from code instead of using R.java (for our own reason).
Things are displayed correctly, however I can NOT click on the links inside the WebView (I can NOT browser through inside the WebView). This doesn't happen if I only have WebView inside the contentView. Are there some layout setting I missed?

I find myself stuck in something I think would be really easy to solve. My app contains a lot of TextViews and ImageViews, and one TextView contains the content listed. I want each element of the displayed content internally linked to the respective TextView. Probably the TextView isn't the right element to use, but I have trouble finding the right element.
The internal link should work exactly like internal links in html-documents... is this possible to achieve in Android?

main.xml:

I have a Textview with location:
eg. "Mountain View, CA"
What I want to achieve is to create this text to act like a Link - color,underline, focusability etc.
This link doesn't need to direct anywhere - surrounding view has attached onClick listener that fires google maps intent.

I am trying to add a webview in my app to display a web page. However, every time I click link on the web page, Browser will be launched to display content in that link. I understand it is something about intent but I am still wondering is there any simpler method to ask webview to display link content within its View ?

Is there any way that I can link a keyword in a TextView to a file or directory on the user's SD card? My app produces stack trace files when it crashes and I want the user to able to click a link in my About dialog to view either the latest one or the folder containing all of them. (Something like "If this app crashes, please send [link]the latest stack.trace file[/link] to us at myapp@example.com.")

I would like to create a TextView that would contain a single link, e.g. google.com. After click it would open google.com in browser. I found a way how to do it, but it's a bit slow, can this be done more efficiently? Now I use this code:
TextView link = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.link); link.setText(Html.fromHtml("<a href="http://www.google.com">google</ a>")); link.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());

I have an app that loads a webview and all the clicks are kept within the app. What I would like to do is when a certain link, for example, http://www.google.com is clicked within the app it opens the default browser.

I am trying to populate a TextView based on the current selected options in 3 Spinner(s) but cant seem to figure out how to retrieve the selected values from the Spinners to invoke the update function with.
Here is my current code (quite messy but I'm just learning Java,
public class AgeFun extends Activity {
private String[] dayNames;
private String[] yearArray;
private final static int START_YEAR = 1990;
private static TextView textDisp;
private Button calcButton;
private static Spinner spinnerDay, spinnerYear, spinnerMonth;
private static ArrayAdapter<?> monthAdapter, dayAdapter, yearAdapter;
private int year, month, day;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Overridepublic void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
year = 2000;
month = 1;
day = 1;
textDisp = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.textView1);
calcButton = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
calcButton.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
// Perform action on clicks
AgeFun.updateAge(year, month, day);
// Month spinner
spinnerMonth = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerFirst);
monthAdapter = ArrayAdapter.createFromResource(
this, R.array.monthList, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item);
monthAdapter.setDropDownViewResource(android.R.layout.simple_spinner_dropdown_item);
spinnerMonth.setAdapter(monthAdapter);
// Day spinner
dayNames = new String[31];
for(int i =1; i <= 31; ++i)
{ dayNames[i-1] = Integer.toString(i);
} spinnerDay = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerSecond);
dayAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<CharSequence>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, dayNames);
spinnerDay.setAdapter(dayAdapter);
// Year spinner
yearArray = new String[40];
for(int i =0; i < 40; ++i)
{ yearArray[i] = Integer.toString(START_YEAR+i);
} spinnerYear = (Spinner) findViewById(R.id.spinnerThird);
yearAdapter = new ArrayAdapter<CharSequence>(this, android.R.layout.simple_spinner_item, yearArray);
spinnerYear.setAdapter(yearAdapter);
updateAge(2000,1,1);
}private static void updateAge(int year, int month, int day) {
Date dob = new GregorianCalendar(year, month, day).getTime();
Date currDate = new Date();
long age = (currDate.getTime() - dob.getTime()) / (1000 * 60 * 60 * 24) / 365;
textDisp.setText("Your are " + Long.toString(age) + " years old");

I have a TextView with its MovementMethod set to LinkMovementMethod. Text added to the TextView is a combination of normal text and URLs. For URLs, I would like to offer a context menu when the URL is long pressed for doing things such as copying the address. I've had a look at the source for LinkMovementMethod but it doesn't seem to have any long pressed related code I could override. Any ideas on how to go around achieving this?

I have a WebView in my Android App that is loading an HTML string using the loadDataWithBaseURL() method. The problem is that local anchor links (<a href="#link">...) are not working correctly. When the link is clicked, it becomes highlighted, but does not scroll to the corresponding anchor.
This also does not work if I use the WebView's loadUrl() method to load a page that contains anchor links. However, if I load the same URL in the browser, the anchor links do work.
Is there any special handling required to get these to work for a WebView?
I am using API v4 (1.6).
There isn't much to the code, here are the relevant parts of some test code I've been working with:

when I click on one item in the ListView that item's background changes to light gray, but when I continue to scroll through the list every 4th item has the background changed to light gray even though those other items have not been clicked. How do I make only the item I clicked be effected by the click?
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.resultsList);
lv.setAdapter(new ArrayAdapter(this, R.layout.resultitem, (String[])labelList.toArray(new String[labelList.size()])));
lv.setOnItemClickListener(new OnItemClickListener() {
public void onItemClick(AdapterView parent, View view, int position, long id) {
TextView tv = (TextView)view.findViewById(R.id.result);
tv.setBackgroundColor(Color.LTGRAY);
tv.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);

I have a ListView in my Activity. I am trying to catch both a click and a long click (which should bring up a context menu).
ListView lv = (ListView) findViewById(R.id.MyListView); ... lv.setOnItemClickListener(this); lv.setOnCreateContextMenuListener(this); ...
I notice that if I have both the click and long click listeners up, I won't ever get the long click listener (i.e. the context menu). If I remove the setOnItemClickListener() call, i get a call into
@Override public void onCreateContextMenu(ContextMenu menu, View v, ContextMenu.ContextMenuInfo menuInfo) {

I have just started my career as an android programmer, and am currently relying heavily on the sample code and api examples. I have been working with this api example, to produce an expandable list of items (note this example does not use the ExpadableListView).In playing with the example, I tried to add another widget that would become visible and be gone at the same time as the text (mDialogue in the sample code). This works well with another TextView, but as soon as I tried to add a button widget, it stopped working. The list would expand on first click, showing my hidden TextView and Button, but it will not disappear on further clicks. The button is however, clickable, and I was able to set up an onClick listener to change the button text back and forth.I'm starting to wonder, is it just not possible to have a clickable item inside a clickable list item? Or is there some kind of work around? Would it solve my problem if I used ExpandableListView?
