When i loaded it in the emulator it's not working i.e if I write a simple alert the webView won't display the alert. I have enabled the javascript. But then also its not working.
View 1 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to pass a JavaScript object from JavaScript to Java using addJavascriptInterface()? Something along these lines: var javaScriptObject = {"field1":"string1", "field2":"string2"}; JavaScriptInterface.passObject(javaScriptObject); How would such a call be captured on the Java side? I have no problem setting up the interface to send a string, but when I send an object, I receive null on the Java end.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI've been following a discussion on the apparent lack of JavaScript and Java on Android browsers. One of my hot button applications requires either JavaScript or at least the ability to run a .jar file in order to save data. No one in the other discussion has been able to find a Android browser capable of supporting this application (TiddlyWiki)..
View 12 Replies View RelatedI'm making an Javascript web app and I can't for the life of me get the touchstart event to fire. I get the touchmove and touchend events no problem. This is a problem because as I see it the best way to distinguish between a tap and a scrolling motion is to zero a counter on the touchstart event, update it at touchmove and then compare it at touchend. I'm doing this so I can do some action at the end of tap but not a scroll. For instance, it would be very confusing if a page opened for an item in a listed after you finished scrolling down that list, but it would be nice to be able to tap on an item to open its page.
This is what I have..
I never see the touchstart alert. If I scroll the touchend will fire and app__touchMoving will have some sort of decent value. On a side note, I've noticed that sometimes the touchend will seem to fire multiple times.
Am I missing something basic here? Plenty of people say that this should work just fine on Android (and iPhone) yet the first listener never seems to fire.
Update: I should mention that I've been testing on a Samsung Galaxy S running Android 2.1.

Is there a way to do this on Android via HTML/CSS/Javascript?
I am going to develop an app runs on both Android and desktop, so UI will be built on html , javascript, css. User experience is very important, I am looking for a javascript UI framework has great UI, animation and response time. A great UI framework but slow (cause user annoying) is not acceptable in my case.There are many javascript frameworks available. Can you guys share the experience of how they behave on Android ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm loading up a webview with some locally generated html and javascript.It makes calls to app methods just fine.But what's the right way to get data from Javascript back to the application? It's simple to have javascript call app methods, but any parameters specified in the call on the javascript side don't survive the trip (I just get null in the app).Gross hacks seem obvious (open a url and encode the data in the url), but that can't be right.You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.

Well, the following source code works fine for me (http:// whyandroid.com/android/206-using-webviews.html):
This is not called on the UI thread. Post a runnable to invoke

My problem now is to use a parameter for the JavaScript function.

I need to escape it just like the iPhone / Objective-C command stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString does.
I'm debugging a Javascript+HTML app. All the content is in ./assets.
The app works fine in Firefox, Safari and iPhone (over the web).
But in the WebView, I only get: D/WebCore (626): Console: undefined line: 0 source: undefined
I need to debug this code. Could I either: - enable more debugging in the WebView? though I think this needs to be done in the framework. or: - set up a desktop WebView equivalent where I can run a Javascript debugging tool?
