i use this code. but problem is "market://" url open in play store correctly but rtsp link not open in default video player. error says page not found.
public class MainActivity extends Activity {
//private Button button;
private WebView webView;
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);
startWebView("http://google.com");
this.webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
this.webView.setDownloadListener(new DownloadListener()
{
public void onDownloadStart(String paramAnonymousString1, String paramAnonymousString2, String paramAnonymousString3, String paramAnonymousString4, long paramAnonymousLong)
{
Intent localIntent = new Intent("android.intent.action.VIEW", Uri.parse(paramAnonymousString1));

Trying to make WebView based app launcher/drawer for a kiosk application. Idea is you do not need to know Android to launch apps, just how to build intent links. Been through several iterations and answers and can't quite get this right. Target is Android 10.
Currently the intent test links work fine from Chrome, but fail to launch for the WebView. I believe the issue is with resolving the activity from the package manager?

I am also not keen on checking for the existence of intents:// since Slack for example eschews that and instead wants you to use slack://open. Is there a documented way to emulate opening these kinds of links from a Webview like Chrome does?
I have a webview that contains pdf hyperlinks (some of them are large), when the user click on the hyperlink the pdf starts downloading and then gets viewed in the pdf vieweR.
I want to add a cancel button that stops the ongoing download, how is that possible?
how can I stop an ongoing download
The best and easy way to manage downloads is by using DownloadManager. Also
WebView provides API to set download listener which makes handling of downloads a lot easier - DownloadListener.
Here is quick example of starting and canceling downloads by clicking on a button:
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private Long mOnGoingDownload;
private Button mCancel;
private WebView mWebView;
private DownloadManager mDownloadManger;
protected void cancelDownload() {
if (mOnGoingDownload != null) {
mDownloadManger.remove(mOnGoingDownload);
clearDownloadingState();
Toast.makeText(this, "Download canceled", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
}
protected void clearDownloadingState() {
unregisterReceiver(mDownloadCompleteListener);
mCancel.setVisibility(View.GONE);
mOnGoingDownload = null;
}
BroadcastReceiver mDownloadCompleteListener = new BroadcastReceiver() {
public void onReceive(Context ctx, Intent intent) {
clearDownloadingState();
long id = intent.getLongExtra(DownloadManager.EXTRA_DOWNLOAD_ID, 0);
Uri fileUri = mDownloadManger.getUriForDownloadedFile(id);
//Open file in viewer
//...
Toast.makeText(ctx, fileUri.getLastPathSegment() + " downloaded", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
};
protected void startDownload(String url, String userAgent, String mimetype) {
Uri fileUri = Uri.parse(url);
String fileName = fileUri.getLastPathSegment();
String cookies = CookieManager.getInstance().getCookie(url);
DownloadManager.Request request = new DownloadManager.Request(fileUri);
request.setMimeType(mimetype)
.addRequestHeader("cookie", cookies)
.addRequestHeader("User-Agent", userAgent)
.setDestinationInExternalPublicDir(Environment.DIRECTORY_DOWNLOADS, fileName);
//register receiver for download complete event
registerReceiver(mDownloadCompleteListener, new IntentFilter(DownloadManager.ACTION_DOWNLOAD_COMPLETE));
mCancel.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
mOnGoingDownload = mDownloadManger.enqueue(request);
Log.e("DownloadExample", "68|MainActivity::startDownload: Download of " + fileName + " started");
}
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mDownloadManger = (DownloadManager) getSystemService(DOWNLOAD_SERVICE);
mCancel = (Button)findViewById(R.id.cancelDownload);
mCancel.setVisibility(View.GONE);
mCancel.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
#Override
public void onClick(View v) {
cancelDownload();
}
});
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient(){
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
});
mWebView.setDownloadListener(new DownloadListener() {
#Override
public void onDownloadStart(String url, String userAgent, String contentDisposition, String mimetype, long contentLength) {
startDownload(url, userAgent, mimetype);
}
});
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.engineerhammad.com/2015/04/Download-Test-Files.html");
}
}

I am a beginner in making android applications. I have made a web application in HTML which i want to be able to use in my application that I am making in android studio. I managed to make a simple web view in android studio which makes my web application work fine when i test it on my device. The only problem is that the web view handles all the URL´s inside my web application. The web application consists of tabs that directs me to different pages when i click on them which is what i want. But I have contact-buttons and different links that i want to be "released" from the web view. Lets take the contact button as an example. I have a Galaxy note which I am using to test my apps. When i open my application on my phone i see my Web application and i can navigate around. When i click the contact button, the web view handles the link and gives me a "page could not load" instead of opening the mail application on my phone. I also have buttons with links that I want to be able to open in an external browser on my phone. I hope you understand my problem and I am sorry for my bad english.
This is some of my code for the web view.
Mainactivity.java
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
WebView browser;
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
browser = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.wvwMain);
browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
browser.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
browser.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
browser.setWebViewClient(new ourViewClient());
try {
browser.loadUrl("http://WebAppURL");
} catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}
}
OurViewClient.java
public class ourViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
Try this way implement your WebViewClient like
private class VideoWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
try{
System.out.println("url called:::" + url);
if (url.startsWith("tel:")) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_DIAL, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
} else if (url.startsWith("http:")
|| url.startsWith("https:")) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
} else if (url.startsWith("mailto:")) {
MailTo mt=MailTo.parse(url);
send_email(mt.getTo());
}
else {
return false;
}
}catch(Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
}
return true;
}
}
and create send mail function like
public void send_email(String email_add) {
System.out.println("Email address::::" + email_add);
final Intent emailIntent = new Intent(
android.content.Intent.ACTION_SEND);
emailIntent.setType("plain/text");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_EMAIL,
new String[] { email_add });
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_SUBJECT, "");
emailIntent.putExtra(android.content.Intent.EXTRA_TEXT, "");
yourActivity.this.startActivity(
Intent.createChooser(emailIntent, "Send mail..."));
}
My Code Working Good, just Remember the code line Sequence and placement.. Copy and paste code in your mainactivity.java file
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mywebView = findViewById(R.id.myview);
WebSettings webSettings = mywebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mywebView.loadUrl("http://yourwebsitename.com");
mywebView.setWebViewClient(new MyCustomWebViewClient());
}
class MyCustomWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (Uri.parse(url).getHost().equals("yourwebsitename.com")) {
//open url contents in webview
return false;
} else {
//here open external links in external browser or app
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
return true;
}
}
}
}

Where should i edit to show no network connected message if device is not connected to internet???
First you need to check whether or not internet is connected to your device, you can check internet connection with below method
public static boolean checkNetworkConnection(Context _context){
ConnectivityManager connectivity = (ConnectivityManager) _context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
if (connectivity != null)
{
NetworkInfo[] info = connectivity.getAllNetworkInfo();
if (info != null)
for (int i = 0; i < info.length; i++)
if (info[i].getState() == NetworkInfo.State.CONNECTED)
{
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
This method will return either true[If internet is connected] or false[if not connected]
Based on that true or false value you can decide whether to display html page or web page
Now Question is if you want to display webpage from your local folder than you can do it like this
You can load local html file as below
WebView lWebView = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView);
File lFile = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + "<FOLDER_PATH_TO_FILE>/<FILE_NAME>");
lWebView.loadUrl("file:///" + lFile.getAbsolutePath());
And if you want to display cahed html page than you need to do some R & D task for that.
Now if internet is connected than you can use below method to display web page on webview
wbb = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView_tobe_loaded);
WebSettings wbset=wbb.getSettings();
wbset.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wbb.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
String url="http://www.google.com";
System.out.println(getdeviceid());
wbb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wbb.loadUrl(url);
I hope you understood all the explanation
You can check for internet connection using this:
ConnectivityManager cm =
(ConnectivityManager)context.getSystemService(Context.CONNECTIVITY_SERVICE);
NetworkInfo activeNetwork = cm.getActiveNetworkInfo();
boolean isConnected = activeNetwork != null &&
activeNetwork.isConnectedOrConnecting();
more info here: http://developer.android.com/training/monitoring-device-state/connectivity-monitoring.html
And to show HTML without load it from the internet:
webview.loadData("<b>Connection not availeable</b>", "text/html", null);
more info: http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html#loadData(java.lang.String,java.lang.String, java.lang.String)
I have developed a web app that displays a list of pdf documents hosted on a web server. This app is embedded in a webview app for android however when I load the app on my phone, selection of a pdf link does nothing. What am I doing wrong? Thanks
Heres the java code:
package com.hellowebview;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.KeyEvent;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
public class HellowebviewActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
private WebView mWebView;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.loadUrl("http://aipnz.webs.com");
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
mWebView.setScrollBarStyle(WebView.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY);
}
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView webview, String url)
{
webview.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
#Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event)
{
if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && mWebView.canGoBack())
{
mWebView.goBack();
return true;
}
return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}
}
If you want to load pdf you can use Google docs to load it.
String googleDocs = "https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=";
String pdf_url = "http://kronox.org/documentacion/Hello.Android.new.pdf";
webView.loadUrl(googleDocs + pdf_url);
NOTE: You need android.permission.INTERNET in Manifest file
Just create an Intent in your shouldOverrideUrlLoading method:
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if ( urlIsPDF(url)){
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(url), "application/pdf");
try{
view.getContext().startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
//user does not have a pdf viewer installed
}
} else {
webview.loadUrl(url);
}
return true;
}
And then whenever a user clicks a PDF link in a page within your webview, the file will open in an external PDF app.
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (url.endsWith(".pdf")) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(url), "application/pdf");
try {
view.getContext().startActivity(intent);
} catch (ActivityNotFoundException e) {
//user does not have a pdf viewer installed
}
} else {
webView.loadUrl(url);
}
return true;
}
}
This is the solution I use:
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (url.endsWith(".pdf")){
String pdfUrl = googleDocs + url;
view.loadUrl(pdfUrl);
} else {
view.loadUrl(url);
}
return true;
}
with
private final String googleDocs = "https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=";
You have to override shouldOverrideUrlLoading method in WebClient. I use this approach with combination of intent and Google Docs as a backup:
/* You might want to move this string definition somewhere else */
final String googleDocs = "https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=";
WebView webView = new WebView(getContext());
//webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView webView, String url) {
if (url.endsWith(".pdf")) {
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(url), "application/pdf");
/* Check if there is any application capable to process PDF file. */
if (intent.resolveActivity(getPackageManager()) != null) {
startActivity(intent);
} else {
/* If not, show PDF in Google Docs instead. */
view.loadUrl(googleDocs + url);
}
} else {
webView.loadUrl(url);
}
return true;
}
});
You might need to change passing the context and accessing startActivity method, but other than that it should run as it is.
Also note that since API 24, there are 2 shouldOverrideUrlLoading methods you can override. As it is stated here from #CommonsWare, it is OK to override deprecated method.
use loadurl another overloaded methods...and write internet permission
Sharing this answer as I tried all the above solutions but did not work for me, this is Kotlin code (not javascript)
myWebView.setWebViewClient(object:WebViewClient() {
override fun shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view:WebView, url:String):Boolean {
if (url.endsWith(".pdf"))
{
val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW)
intent.setDataAndType(android.net.Uri.parse(url), "application/pdf")
try
{
view.getContext().startActivity(intent)
}
catch (e:ActivityNotFoundException) {
//user does not have a pdf viewer installed
}
}
else
{
myWebView.loadUrl(url)
}
return true
}
})
