Android :: WebView Tutorial Opens Requested Address In Browser And Not In Web View
May 23, 2010
I am using Android emulator with AVD of Android 2.1 and I have the following problem: Trying to load a URL in a WebView using webView.loadUrl causes it to open in the browser instead.Note: I am talking about the initial opening, not the issue in which links from the WebView open in a browser, though, perhaps it is somehow connected.I've tried several things:I've removed <uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" /> from the manifest. That actually made it work correctly, i.e, load the html into the webview. However, as one would expect, the only thing it loaded is "unable to connect the internet" error page.I've debugged the project to make sure and indeed at loadUrl function, it opens Android browser. The CatLog at this point is as such:05-23 22:54:06.858: INFO/Activity Manager(51): Starting activity: Intent { act=android.intent.action.VIEW cat=[android. intent. category.BROWSABLE]dat=http://m.walla.co.il/ErrorPage.aspx?ReturnUrl=/Default.aspx
cmp=com.android.browser/.BrowserActivity i've tried downloading a real sample project ("Hello Android" book source files, project - BrowserView). However, it didn't work just the same. I've created a new project and followed the directions at Google's official tutorial of using WebView and got the same result.I haven't find anyone else complaining about it. Why does it happen?

I have a simple problem, i have loaded an external url in my webview. Now wat i need is that wen the user clicks on the links on the page loaded, it has to work like a normal browser and open the link in the same webview... but its opening the androids default browser and loading the page there?
I have enabled JavaScript... but yet its not working... have i forgotten something?

1. My app opens a web view, with a web page that requires a username & password. 2. The user writes his password, and on the Android popup to remember the password he chooses "remember". 3. Now the user wants to log in with a different password. But the web view always remembers his last password and doesn't even show him the login page. How can I programmatically clear that saved password? Assuming that I know the host URL. I tried webView.clearCache(true), webView.clearFormData(). But it didn't work.

I need to create a simple link in my Android app. Let's say that it would display text "Google" and after user clicks on it, http://google.com opens in web browser. What is the easiest way to do this? The link should change color whhen it's in pressed state.

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'm trying to run the Android Hello Map View tutorial app on the Android emulator. The Google Map view displays, but the tiles are blank.
Judging by the errors below (taken from LogCat) the app is unable to connect to the internet. The web browser on the emulator connects without problems. I've also double-checked the API key.I'm using the 1.5 Google APIs SDK, from Eclipse Galileo, on Windows XP SP3, behind a corporate firewall. I've tried two methods to add proxy information:Add -http-proxy http://www.foo.co.uk:80 to Additional Emulator Command Line Options in the Target Page in Debug Configurations.
Remove settings in 1. and add proxy information at Home > Menu > Settings > Wireless Controls > Mobile Networks > Access Point Names.
Neither seems to help. Any other ideas? Should I be adding proxy information within the app? If so, how? Sam Dutton, AMENDMENT: internet permission has been added to the manifest application element:
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

I am able to launch browser and open site "google.com" and from my App successfully. I have a requirement that when the browser is launched from my application, I have to hide the address bar visible at top for that browser session. So can think of that I dont want the address that I am trying to open to be visible to users.Please let me if this is possible and and if yes how.

I want to create a search box with the search button directly on the right of the EditText, without any spacing. Looks like the address bar on the internal Browser application. Is it possible or do I need to create it myself?

Why a inline webview into which I pass a URL is now opening a browser session for the URL instead of populating the in app webView? It works on the emulator perfectly but a physical device shows the browser. The emulator is build CUPCAKE 150240 The device is CRC1.

I have googled a whole day,still,I can not find a solution.So, I post my question here,hope to get some hit.
I want to add some blank area at the end of a webview in android, I try to set the bottom padding of webview,however, it doesn't work. I know the layout of webview is absoluteLayout,which is deprecated, and I tried get the whole length of webview,and add a view at the end, I try to use getContentHeight(), however, the height is not quite correct,
it is not end of webview,maybe because of picture or something else, I do not know.
So,my question is,is there anyway to achieve my original goal, which is add some blank area at the end of a webview?

I have a web page that uses a custom font, using this CSS piece of code: If I load the page in the browser in Android 1.1, 1.5 or 1.6, this technique works fine, the font is downloaded and used. But these were the good times. Now this is all gone. With 2.0 my declaration is ignored, the default font is used, and I'm sad! This is in the Browser app, and in my app that uses a WebView.

I'm trying to do a fairly simple thing but i'm failing since 3 hours.
I have a WebView that i show with some pictures and html stored in local sdcard. After the user clicks a button in my app, i want to show the webview, and when he press the back button, i want to return to the previous view (which is my main app view).
How to do it? I tried this:
CODE:.............
However, when i press back, my app quits.

For the current application/widget I'm creating I have not set any permissions yet, altough the apk files I have already generated (for example this one: http://code.google.com/p/workregistrationwidget-android/downloads/det...) on install it notifies the users that it requests both SD card access and phone state access. The application source is available here: http://code.google.com/p/workregistrationwidget-android/ Can anyone have a look and tell me what I do wrong or is it just a bug?

All actually I have two problem right now with gps provider. I have samsung spica so maybe this is something in a hardware.
1. location's accuracy is always set to 0 - can anybody explain it, is it phone specific? or something Im doing wrong.
2. I created activity that starts service in same thread and the service requests location updates every 15sec or 20meters so gps are going off for that time and when I have activity in foreground and bound to service I can see location update if I move 20m.
but when I turn my mobile into sleep mode or start another foreground activity it seems like gps is never back so i dont have location updates.
this is strange because before I set 0s while requesting updates and it worked fine - probably because gps was always on.
so again is this something Im doing wrong? should I run service in separate thread? I just run out of ideas!

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 ?
