I am trying to load a YouTube video in Android.
I have added a WebView in xml:
<WebView android:id="#+id/VideoView"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_width="fill_parent" />
I then load it as follows:
WebView webview = new WebView(this);
setContentView(R.layout.webview);
String htmlString = "<html> <body> <embed src=\"http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS998HaGk9M\"; type=application/x-shockwave-flash width="+640+" height="+385+"> </embed> </body> </html>";
webview.loadData(htmlString, "text/html", "utf-8");
I have added the proper permissions to the manifest. All I receive is a blank white screen and nothing loads.
Can someone please help me with this?
Instead of using webview, just start a new Intent...
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
Uri.parse("http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XS998HaGk9M")));

I working on android application , I am loading custom html data with a submit button and form submission .. custom html loads successfully in webview later when I redirect from inside the html content it asks for external browser . How can i fix to be work in same webview ?
here is my code:
wb = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webv);
wb.getSettings().setLoadsImagesAutomatically(true);
wb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wb.setScrollBarStyle(View.SCROLLBARS_INSIDE_OVERLAY);
String customHtml= "<html>...</html>"
wb.loadData(customHtml, "text/html", "UTF-8");
Add this line
wb.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
Use below code;
WebView view = new WebView(MainActivity.this);
view.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(false);
((LinearLayout)rootView.findViewById(R.id.text_about)).addView(view);
view.loadData(getString(R.string.about), "text/html; charset=utf-8", "utf-8");
in your string.xml
<string name="about"><![CDATA[ <html> <head></head> <body style="text-align:justify;color:#059bba;background-color:#FFF;"> here enter your text </body> </html> ]]> </string>
I want to show some html content in webView. Here is my code:
String htmlContent = "..."; // some content here
webViewContent.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webViewContent.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
webViewContent.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(false);
webViewContent.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(false);
webViewContent.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(false);
webViewContent.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
webViewContent.getSettings().setLayoutAlgorithm(WebSettings.LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN);
webViewContent.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
webViewContent.setBackgroundColor(ContextCompat.getColor(context, R.color.background_final_page));
webViewContent.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, htmlContent , "text/html", "UTF-8", null);
It shows text and images well, but when i have iframe in htmlContent , for example
<iframe allowtransparency="true" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=link" width="100%"></iframe>
webView shows iframe not correctly, with cropped height.When i added height="100%" to iframe code, it has no result. When i set height=600 or height=400, it works, but i cannt know in advance height size of iframe.
So, how i can to fix it?
I want to work with html file, I did it when I deploy it, it won't workout (The input html page need to be shown but it shows webpage not available when I deploy ) ! Error msg also not in LOG !Any help please. Where is the wrong I'm doing ?
public class TestActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
WebView webView =null;
#Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
webView =(WebView)findViewById(R.id.web);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
webView.loadUrl("file:///android-assets/www/index.html");
}
}
Here my javascript.
function sayhello(){
alert("hi", document.getElementById('name'),value);
}
and html file is here
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<script src="index.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
What is ur name ?
<input id="name" value="">
<button onclick="sayhello()">say hello</button>
</body>
</head>
</html>
and the layout
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<WebView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/web"
android:text="#string/hello"
/>
</LinearLayout>
You need to use:
file:///android-asset/www/index.html
Just get rid of the 's'
UPDATE:
You can also load pages with:
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, html, "text/html", "utf-8",null);
Where the second param is your page to load.
I am new to android. I am facing two problems right now 1. I parsed xml file and showed it in webview which contains videos and text . When i click on videos it will not play . In xml videos are youtube embed.
Why is it so?
1.First problem :code and image
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.web_view);
Intent intent=getIntent();
String urlsting=intent.getStringExtra("str");
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
mWebView.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
mWebView.setInitialScale(100);
mWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
mWebView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, urlsting,"text/html", "utf-8", null);
}
When i clcik on video it starts browsing and shows only black screen,then nothing will happen.

2. I have you-tube embedded videos url which I given in html tag and try to load it .They are also not working for me. I checked number of questions and blogs and also made no of settings then also unable to show video . Help will be appreciated .Thanks in advance.
String video= "<table bgcolor=\"#666666\"><tr><td><iframe width=\"300\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" id=\"player\" type=\"text/html\"src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/iiLepwjBhZE?enablejsapi=1&origin=example.com\"></iframe></td></tr><tr><td><iframe width=\"300\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" id=\"player\" type=\"text/html\"src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/lBMMTeuJ_UQ?enablejsapi=1&origin=example.com\"></iframe></td></tr><tr><td><iframe width=\"300\" height=\"260\" frameborder=\"0\" id=\"player\" type=\"text/html\"src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/BZMkY3y7nM0?enablejsapi=1&origin=example.com\"></iframe></td></tr><tr><td></table>";
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
mWebView.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
//mWebView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null,load,"text/html","UTF-8",null);
mWebView.loadData(video,"text/html","UTF-8");
In this case I load the youtube embeded videos to webview but they are also not working.

I am using android 2.3.3version.I also want clarification that is there any requirement of install adobe flash player on emulator, but i think no because videos are working in browser. can anybody tell i am right or wrong?? please try to give me solution because i stuck with this problem long ago..
I also tried using object tag as follows:
String obj="<object width=\"300\" height=\"260\"><param name=\"movie\" value=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/iiLepwjBhZE?enablejsapi=1&origin=example.com\"?version=3&hl=pt_BR&rel=0\"></param><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\"></param><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\"></param><embed src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/iiLepwjBhZE?enablejsapi=1&origin=example.com\" ?version=3&hl=pt_BR&rel=0\" type=\"application/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"480\" height=\"330\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" /></object>";
You need to
set a WebChromeClient to your WebView
web.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
and turn on hardwareAccelerated value
<application
android:hardwareAccelerated="true"...
check out http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html and read HTML5 Video support part.
This works for me...
I guess, you are using iframe tag in your html code. Change it with object tag. I mean, you must use object instead iframe. An example here:
<object width="480" height="330"><param name="movie"
value="http://www.youtube.com/v/"here is your video id"?version=3&hl=pt_BR&rel=0">
</param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param>
<param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param>
<embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/"here is your video id"?version=3&hl=pt_BR&rel=0"
type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="480" height="330" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" /></object>
Use the code below:
webview.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
webview.loadUrl(url);
Try this and thick it as accepted if your problem solved :)
have you tested your app in actual device? Because the videos which are embedded like this i.e. iFrame are taking more time to get loaded. In my case, same thing was happening then I changed the webview settings to,
getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
but after that it was not working on emulator and in device it was loading so I thought its not working but just today I tried the same thing and it was working fine with my surprise. So you just need to add this line of code.
Second thing is that only those videos which are embedded in iframe tag are supported by enabling plugins to true.
This does it:
myWebView.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
myWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
myWebView.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
myWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());
And enable hardware acceleration too!
Follow this source, Youtube video should play
String youtubeId = "iiLepwjBhZE";
int width = rl.getWidth();
int height = rl.getHeight();
WebChromeClient mWebChromeClient = new WebChromeClient(){
public void onProgressChanged(WebView view, int newProgress) {
/*
view.loadUrl("javascript:(function() { " +
"document.querySelector('iframe').setAttribute('style', 'width: 1080px; height: 1920px'); " +
"})()");
*/
}
};
String video= "<table bgcolor=\"#666666\"><tr><td><iframe width=\"" +
width +
"\" height=\"" +
height +
"\"frameborder=\"0\" id=\"player\" type=\"text/html\"src=\"http://www.youtube.com/embed/" +
youtubeId +
"?enablejsapi=1&origin=example.com\"></iframe> </td> </tr><tr><td></table>";
//
webView.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
webView.setWebChromeClient(mWebChromeClient);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setAppCacheEnabled(true);
webView.setInitialScale(1);
webView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
webView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
//mWebView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null,load,"text/html","UTF-8",null);
webView.loadData(video,"text/html","UTF-8");
