I want to extend the WebView so that I can override the action of clicking on a link in the webview. At first glance I do not see how to do this. I tried adding an onclick handler to the WebView and that had absolutely no effect. I am not seeing very much info on extending the WebView control and was hoping someone might have some suggestions.

I have some WebView widgets inside my Activity. I use loadData() to set the content, and this html contains a link. Some of my WebViews work okay, when I click the link, the web browser is started in a new window, but some make my app crash when I click on a link.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI 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?

how to apply clicking action on listview in android.
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am a newcomer to Android having recently purchased a Samsung Galaxy S I9000M (my first smartphone ever), marketed in Canada under the name Vibrant. It is running Android 2.1 and I have not yet rooted, unlocked or otherwise modified the phone.
I have downloaded and installed three browsers in addition to the stock Internet browser: Dolphin, Opera Mini and Opera Mobile.
After installing Opera Mobile I started having the following annoying problem:
When I was in the stock browser, every time I clicked a link the "Complete action using" window would pop up prompting me to select which browser I want to use. The choices were: Dolphin, Internet and Opera Mini (curiously, no Opera Mobile). I would check the "Use by default for this action" box and proceed to click "Internet" (the stock browser), which should have made the stock browser my default one. However, next time I clicked a link it would happen all over again.
This happened only in the stock browser, never in Dolphin or one of the Operas.
It's like my Android kept forgetting my choice of default browser although in the settings for the stock browser it said it was default.
I also noticed that after the installation of Opera Mobile the delay between clicking a link in any browser and the browser's reaction became noticeably longer (up to a second).
I need to make an android App that when the user navigates to my webpage with the browser and clicks on a specific link my App activity gets launched. I try to achieve this using Intent filters but without success. I followed some samples like Notepad and PhotoStream but nothing works for me.

View 6 Replies View RelatedMy 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?
OK so I have an rss reader that links to articles. One of the sites it links to doesn't have a mobile view. I was wondering if anyone knew if it was possible to set the "zoom" and position of the view once the page is loaded?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIf a page has a URL or a phone number on it that isn't a link is there any way to have WebView recognize it and automatically turn it into a link like you can with TextViews?
With a TextView you would simply set the android:autoLink to the desired settings:
<TextView
android:autoLink="web|phone"

but I can't find any equivalent for WebView.
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 ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWhen you click a link in the Android browser, the target link area gets highlighted with an orange box by default. A longpress then opens up the context menu for link handling (copy, paste, new window, etc). Is there a way to disable either / both of these in webview? I'm using the highlight code in scriptaculous and the default android link styling is being laid over top of the effect.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI thought that Action was preeminent during intent resolution and if the intent had the same action as the intent filter, it would be considered a match regardless of data, if the filter did not specify anything. So I was very surprised to find that supplying action+data where filter had only action, causes it to fail. In the code below, if you comment out line 47 so that data is *not* sent, only then it resolves correctly. To get it to work with the data (an id that is simply a String), what mime type should I specify in the intent filter?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm just getting into Android development, coming from a mostly ruby and scheme with some Java background. For a first project, I decided to try and build a stopwatch.
The included Chronometer widget doesn't quite have the functionality I wanted, so I copied its code into my own package. However, when I try to build it, I get the following error:
CODE:...............
If I remove the RemotableViewMethod annotation, the code compiles, but crashes with an IllegalStateException as soon as I call a method on the widget, as seen in this stacktrace: http://www.pastebin.org/50243 .
Looking through the android source, you can see stock widgets using the RemotableViewMethod all over the place, but for some reason, my code can't.
So, my question is this: What can I do to enable the RemotableViewMethod annotation in my custom widgets? Is there something I should be doing differently in order to code custom widgets?

Suppress the internal stuff under the assumption that I really don't need it. Start with a toy Contact Manager and implement (reinvent) everything.
My guess is that I am going about this incorrectly. "I want that third alternative" --kirk.
Just for completeness, the new special behavior is to provide an action list for a contact based on the types of that entities data.

I'm trying to override the method onConfigurationChanged and I get the error:
The method onConfigurationChanged(Configuration) of type BaseActivity must override or implement a supertype method
Here is my BaseActivity.java code...
A lot of post out here in the Internet is saying that I can do that.
Im using the NotePad example as a base for an application. This binds a ListActivity to a Provider.
Its perfect, except it uses SimpleCursorAdaptor, which means the list only binds to and displays one item per row. I want it to display two items, both bound the Provider. Or more accurately display the text from one Content Provider field and an icon which depends on the value of a different field.
This sounds like a pretty simple thing to do, a very slight modification to the NotePad application. Trouble is, I have no idea on *how* to do it. I really need a starting point, and "approach" to use.
So far I have tried (unsuccessfully):
* Hand populating the ListView by reading in the Provider data and populating an array in OnCreate. This works, except as the data is not bound the List does not update when I add an item.
* Extending SimpleCursorAdapter with a custom getViewBinder. Could still only bind to a single column.
* Building my own ListAdaptor. Couldn't get this to work.
* Concatenating both fileds together and "parsing" 2 fields into 1 field read/write.
The next thing I will try is extremely tacky running two separate simpleCursorAdaptors in two views in a Linear Layout, fudged so the row height is identical, and duplicate the logic.
I say this only to show that I really, really have tried.
How I can create a custom CursorAdaptor which binds to two fields instead of just one like SimpleCursorAdapter?
