I wrote several simple HTML5 apps which all works on Android browser, but the webview in my activity doesn't work. I have enable javascript in webview setting. Is there anything setting needed for HTML5 to work?

I am experimenting with Androids WebView[1] and its HTML5 features. I have written a little webpage with does the features detection like described here: http://diveintohtml5.org/detect.html
And now I see (I am on a SDK1.6 Emulator) that the LocalStorage, the WebWorkers and Offline Web Applications are not supported!
Does anyone know when these features will be supported? Or does anyone know the exact version (or build) of the webkit engine, that is used in Android 1.6?
I'm piecing together a cheapo app that amongst other things "frames" some of our websites... Pretty simple with the WebViewClient... until I hit the video.
The video is done as HTML5 elements, and these work fine and dandy on Chrome, iPhones, and now that we fixed the encoding issues it works great on Android... in the native browser.
Now the rub: WebView doesn't like it. At all. I can click on the poster image, and nothing happens.
Googling, I found http://www.codelark.com/2010/05/12/android-viewing-video-from-embedded-webview/ which is close, but seems to be based on a 'link' (as in a href...) instead of a video element. (onDownloadListener does not appear to get invoked on video elements...)
I also see references to overriding onShowCustomView, but that seems to not get called on video elements... nor does shouldOverrideUrlLoading..
I would rather not get into "pull xml from the server, reformat it in the app".. by keeping the story layout on the server, I can control the content a bit better without forcing people to keep updating an app. So if I can convince WebView to handle tags like the native browser, that would be best.
Anybody have a working example of HTML5 file with a video tag ? [working in chrome lite] What resolution and format is supported ?

I'm facing a pretty basic problem with the WebView. I'm following the HelloWebView tutorial (here: http://developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-webview.html) and when I'm launching my Activity, the page opens on the browser and not in my app!
I tried everything, but I don't have a clue of the reason. Anyone faced the problem and knows how to solve it? Code...
I've got the following method. Code...
public class Image extends Activity But I'm getting a full cannot be resolved or is not a field compile error, but full is defined as.. WebView full = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview); anyone have any idea why this isnt working?
Here is my code. everything works great except the orientation, it reloads every time I rotate the phone it reloads to the home page, it is a pain. can anyone tell me where the problem is.

I have created a webview with a transparent background. Code...
Here is the JavaInterface that should change the color of the background when the html form is submitted and all the checkboxes pass the test. Code...
This does not work however, and the returned document still has a transparent background. What am I doing wrong, it seems that browser.setBackgroundColor(Color.WHITE); does nothing?
I have a webview in my app that generally works fine for loading websites. But I cannot get www.gmail.com to work: when I open www.gmail.com I see the login page, try to login, afterwards the screen goes black and my app/process is killed. I don't see much in my logcat, just some strange debug information is being dumped as below. But generally https sites work fine, and even more complicated login procedures like opening stackoverflow.com, logging in via openid through https, back to stackoverflow, all work without a problem in my webview. Only gmail.com is giving me these problems.......
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have a WebView in my layout which I want to display a web page in. However the webpage requires Basic Authentication.
If I try to access this web page in the normal android browser, I get prompted for a username and password which then gets remembered and works for the site in future.
I want to do the same thing in my application, but when I load the page into the webview it just comes straigt up with the Unauthorized message without prompting.
I guess the prompting for Authentication is written in code in the android browser. Does anyone know how to inject a username and password into the WebView?
I have done a search arond and found the setHttpAuthUsernamePassword (String host, String realm, String username, String password) Method, But can't seem to get it to work and I can't find anyone else who has either? Not sure if I am giving it the correct parameters as I'm a little confused by what is means as the Realm?
I assumed that if the site was myhost.dyndns.org then the hostname would be myhost and the realm would be dyndns.org? This didn't seem to work. I also tried connecting by IP Address but that makes the Realm setting even more confusing? Any ideas on how I can get this working?
I have a WebView that displays a complex graph. My problem is that the webview will only scroll a few pixels instead of scroll horizontal all the way so I can view the entire graph. How can I make it so my WebView is able to be scrolled all the way to the right/left to view the entire webview content? I tried putting a ScrollView around my WebView but it did the same thing.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have added the webview within scrollview in the layout. So data in webview is not fully displayed. Only in android sdk1.6 WVGA resolution, It is not working properly.
This bug is filed in android bug tracker also. For your reference, http://groups.google.com/group/android-developers/browse_thread/thread/d66d908993d51d65
Can anyone knows how to solve this very big high priority issue.
I am developing part of an Android application that needs to use a WebView to open a password protected site. I am using SharedPreferences to provide the username and password from when the user logs in the app for the first time. I've tested the credentials it's returning, so I know that those are correct. When I run this in the emulator, the site says that I'm unauthorized (even though I am). Here's the code...
So does anyone know why this wouldn't be authenticating me? Should the realm string that I put "" for actually be something?
I am developing an android application using phonegap and javascript code. I need a listbox with four options displayed at once.

Can someone guide how to get a listbox working on the emulator. code...

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?

View 2 Replies View RelatedDoes anyone know if there will be support for applications like that you download from the market to be written in canvas+javascript?
I know currently there is html5 and canvas support for the android browser but I am looking more for a solution for full screen games and such.
The HTML5 applicationCache in the 2.x browser is working well except for one problem:
when you force a cache update in JavaScript (window.applicationCache.update()) then it doesn't go out to the web to check the manifest it just throws the "checking" and then the "noupdate" events.
I imagine that eventually it actually checks the manifest online, but the update() is supposed to force it. any ideas on how to force an update or how old the manifest needs to be before it checks the web again?
I'm trying to use the HTML5 Geolocation features found in Android 2.0. However, it does not work in the browser or a WebView. I've tested in the emulator and on multiple devices. The code I have works in multiple other browsers that support the spec. Has anyone gotten this to work?

View 1 Replies View RelatedIs there any list which HTML5 features the WebView supports and which not? I am interested mainly in: 1) localStorage/sessionStorage 2) offline manifest 3) web sockets 4) web workers. Prior there was lack of those features (http://www.mail-archive.com/android-developers@googlegroups.com/msg60143.html), but in Android 2.1, first two should be supported, but I am not sure about 3 and 4. Is there any list of supported features or we have to test it on our own?
