You need to add the Internet Permission
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

Android WebView display a blank page after I login

I'm trying to load a web application in WebView but I've encounter some problem.
The web application that I was trying to load was a login page and I am going to login to it.
Here is where the problem start, I have no problem loading the 1st page but after I login and it should be showing the page after I login but all I can see was a blank page, I've checked on the login log that my account was logged in but there was nothing on the WebView.
Here's my code:
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
WebSettings webSettings = webView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webSettings.setDomStorageEnabled(true);
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
{
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return false;
}
});
webView.loadUrl(url);
}
I have tried it using WebChromeClient and it was able to load without problem but I want it to load inside WebView and not open another browser.
Anyone have any idea on why this is happening?

Try this sample,
MainActivity.java
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
private WebView webview;
private static final String TAG = "Main";
private ProgressDialog progressBar;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
webview = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview);
WebSettings settings = webview.getSettings();
settings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.setScrollBarStyle(WebView.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY);
final AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
progressBar = ProgressDialog.show(Main.this, "WebView Example", "Loading...");
webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
Log.i(TAG, "Processing webview url click...");
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
Log.i(TAG, "Finished loading URL: " +url);
if (progressBar.isShowing()) {
progressBar.dismiss();
}
}
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error: " + description);
Toast.makeText(activity, "Oh no! " + description, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
alertDialog.setTitle("Error");
alertDialog.setMessage(description);
alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
return;
}
});
alertDialog.show();
}
});
webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
}
}
main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<WebView android:id="+#id/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
manifest.xml
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
This may helps you.

use this to load any url that you are willing to open into your web view xml
String url = "URL";
if (url != null){
webView.loadUrl(url);
}else{
String content = getIntent().getStringExtra(CONTENT_EXTRA);
webView.loadData(content, "text/html", null);
}

Please check your code with different URLs because there is no need to override shouldOverrideUrlLoading method to load the url again on login click.

Android webview page unavailable

I developed a small android webview app to access an internal (local network) PHP based site.
Here is my code:
package com.CheckInventory;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.view.WindowManager;
import android.webkit.WebChromeClient;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebStorage;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
#SuppressWarnings("unused")
public class CheckInventoryActivity extends Activity {
WebView webview;
String username;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_KEEP_SCREEN_ON);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webView.setBackgroundColor(0);
webView.setBackgroundResource(R.drawable.myimage);
webView.addJavascriptInterface(new JavaScriptInterface(this), "Android");
WebSettings webSettings = webview.getSettings();
webSettings.setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
webview.setScrollBarStyle(WebView.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY);
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webSettings.setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
webSettings.setDatabasePath("/data/data/"+this.getPackageName()+"/databases/");
webSettings.setDomStorageEnabled(true);
webview.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
webview.loadUrl("http://192.168.0.124/android");
webview.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
}
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
#Override
public boolean onKeyDown (int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
if((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && webview.canGoBack()){
//webview.goBack();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
}
The site has authentication, but I would like to add some authentication between the app and the site (How do I do this? pass a parameter maybe when the url is invoked), secondly and more importantly, where specifically do I put the onReceivedError so the user never sees the url or the page down if they walk away from the building or loose connection.
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCod,String description, String failingUrl) {
Toast.makeText(Webform.this, "Your Internet Connection May not be active Or " + description , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
I saw this explanation in Detecting Webview Error and Show Message but I do not know where to implement it.
Thank you in advance

You need to create class which extends WebViewClient and implements method OnReceivedError
like this
class myWebClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode,
String description, String failingUrl) {
Toast.makeText(Webform.this, "Your Internet Connection May not be active Or " + description , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
super.onReceivedError(view, errorCode, description, failingUrl);
}
}
and then you need to set new WebViewClient to your WebView
web = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
web.setWebViewClient(new myWebClient());
Hope this helps

You can add onReceivedError in Your HelloWebViewClient class and handle what you want to handle when you get error.
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
#Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, WebResourceRequest request, WebResourceError error){
//Your code to do
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "Your Internet Connection May not be active Or " + error , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}

how to display progress while loading a url to webview in android?

I am loading url into webview:
WebView webview=(WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview);
webview.loadUrl(url);
It's taking some time to load url, during which it shows a blank screen. I want to display a progress dialog while the url is loading:
ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(this, "HI","Loading......", true);
However, the above is code is not working. If any have any ideas, please help.

set a WebViewClient to your WebView, start your progress dialog on you onCreate() method an dismiss it when the page has finished loading in onPageFinished(WebView view, String url)
import android.app.Activity;
import android.app.AlertDialog;
import android.app.ProgressDialog;
import android.content.DialogInterface;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.util.Log;
import android.view.Window;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class Main extends Activity {
private WebView webview;
private static final String TAG = "Main";
private ProgressDialog progressBar;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
this.webview = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webview);
WebSettings settings = webview.getSettings();
settings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.setScrollBarStyle(WebView.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY);
final AlertDialog alertDialog = new AlertDialog.Builder(this).create();
progressBar = ProgressDialog.show(Main.this, "WebView Example", "Loading...");
webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
Log.i(TAG, "Processing webview url click...");
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
Log.i(TAG, "Finished loading URL: " +url);
if (progressBar.isShowing()) {
progressBar.dismiss();
}
}
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl) {
Log.e(TAG, "Error: " + description);
Toast.makeText(activity, "Oh no! " + description, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
alertDialog.setTitle("Error");
alertDialog.setMessage(description);
alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
return;
}
});
alertDialog.show();
}
});
webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
}
}
your main.xml layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
>
<WebView android:id="#string/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>

You will have to over ride onPageStarted and onPageFinished callbacks
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
if (progressBar!= null && progressBar.isShowing()) {
progressBar.dismiss();
}
progressBar = ProgressDialog.show(WebViewActivity.this, "Application Name", "Loading...");
}
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
if (progressBar.isShowing()) {
progressBar.dismiss();
}
}
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl) {
alertDialog.setTitle("Error");
alertDialog.setMessage(description);
alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
return;
}
});
alertDialog.show();
}
});

Check out the sample code. It help you.
private ProgressBar progressBar;
progressBar=(ProgressBar)findViewById(R.id.webloadProgressBar);
WebView urlWebView= new WebView(Context);
urlWebView.setWebViewClient(new AppWebViewClients(progressBar));
urlWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
urlWebView.loadUrl(detailView.getUrl());
public class AppWebViewClients extends WebViewClient {
private ProgressBar progressBar;
public AppWebViewClients(ProgressBar progressBar) {
this.progressBar=progressBar;
progressBar.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
}
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
#Override
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onPageFinished(view, url);
progressBar.setVisibility(View.GONE);
}
}
Thanks.

You need to set an own WebViewClient for your WebView by extending the WebViewClient class.
You need to implement the two methods onPageStarted (show here) and onPageFinished (dismiss here).
More guidance for this topic can be found in Google's WebView tutorial

public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl) {
alertDialog.setTitle("Error");
alertDialog.setMessage(description);
alertDialog.setButton("OK", new DialogInterface.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(DialogInterface dialog, int which) {
return;
}
});
alertDialog.show();
}
});

Once in a while it will crash with a nullPointerException on the line progressBar.hide() under onPageFinished(). That doesn't make any sense since onPageStarted() starts the progressBar, and onPageStarted always comes before onPageFinished(). Why is this?
This only happens like, once in 10 times or something, which is really confusing to me.
It usually happens (always?) when the activity is being started for the first time.

try this
if(progressBar!=null)
progressBar.hide();

Maybe the Activity has been restarted in between the two callbacks? Try rotating the phone while the progressBar is shown to see what the results are.

Try to load progress bar as singleton object. If you create anther progress bar object before hide first one then second progress bar will crash in hide().
if(_progressBar == null)
_progressBar = new ProgressDialog(this);
