How to load external webpage inside WebView

My problem is that the webpage is not loaded inside the webview.

mWebview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com"); launches the web browser...

mWebview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");

This is the code of my activity:

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.webkit.WebView;

public class Main extends Activity

private WebView mWebview;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

mWebview = new WebView(this);
mWebview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
setContentView(mWebview);




I added the required permission in the Manifest:

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />

Thanks to this post, I finally found the solution. Here is the code:

import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.webkit.WebResourceError;
import android.webkit.WebResourceRequest;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
import android.annotation.TargetApi;

public class Main extends Activity

private WebView mWebview ;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

mWebview = new WebView(this);

mWebview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); // enable javascript

final Activity activity = this;

mWebview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()
@SuppressWarnings("deprecation")
@Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl)
Toast.makeText(activity, description, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

@TargetApi(android.os.Build.VERSION_CODES.M)
@Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, WebResourceRequest req, WebResourceError rerr)
// Redirect to deprecated method, so you can use it in all SDK versions
onReceivedError(view, rerr.getErrorCode(), rerr.getDescription().toString(), req.getUrl().toString());

);

mWebview .loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
setContentView(mWebview );






onReceivedError

@Override

try this

webviewlayout.xml:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/help_webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:scrollbars="none"
/>


In your Activity:

WebView webView;
setContentView(R.layout.webviewlayout);
webView = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.help_webview);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");


Update

Add webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewController()); to your Activity.

webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewController());

WebViewController class:

public class WebViewController extends WebViewClient

@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;




public class WebViewController extends WebViewClient
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;


webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewController());


shouldOverrideUrlLoading

Please use this code:-

Main.Xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:background="@drawable/background">
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content" android:background="@drawable/top_heading"
android:id="@+id/rlayout1">
<TextView android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true" android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:textColor="#ffffff" android:textSize="22dip"
android:textStyle="bold" android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="More Information" android:id="@+id/txtviewfbdisplaytitle" />
</RelativeLayout>
<RelativeLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:layout_below="@+id/rlayout1"
android:id="@+id/rlayout2">
<WebView android:id="@+id/webview1" android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1.0" />
</RelativeLayout>
</RelativeLayout>


MainActivity.Java

public class MainActivity extends Activity
private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;


Button btnBack;
WebView webview;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);

webview=(WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview1);
webview.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
openURL();


/** Opens the URL in a browser */
private void openURL()
webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
webview.requestFocus();




Try this code if any query ask me.

just go into XML file and give id to your webView then in java paste these line:

public class Main extends Activity

private WebView mWebview;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.Your_layout_file_name);

mWebview = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.id_you_gave _to_your_wenview_in_xml);
mWebview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");




You can do like this.

webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.loadUrl("Your URL goes here");


It's very simple try integrate these lines of code
first take permission in the Android Manifest file

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />


then write some code in you Activity.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:context="com.example.MainActivity">

<WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/help_webview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"

/>

</LinearLayout>


Then write these code in your MainActivity.java

import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.content.res.Resources;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebResourceRequest;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;

public class MainActivity extends Activity
private WebView mWebview ;
String link = "";// global variable
Resources res;// global variable
@Override


protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_modernherbal_main);
mWebview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.help_webview);
WebSettings webSettings = mWebview.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webSettings.setUseWideViewPort(true);
webSettings.setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);



final Activity activity = this;

mWebview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl)
Toast.makeText(activity, description, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();



);

mWebview .loadUrl("http://www.example.com");




Try this it'll help you to solve your problem

try this;

webView.loadData("<iframe src='http://www.google.com' style='border: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%'></iframe>", "text/html; charset=utf-8", "UTF-8");


Add below method in your activity class.Here browser is nothing but your webview object.

Now you can view web contain page wise easily.

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && browser.canGoBack())
browser.goBack();
return true;

return false;
