Enabling general JavaScript in WebViewClient
While searching for an answer in google, it seems that I'm not the only one stuck with a problem that seems impossible to solve.
I've managed to create a WebView with a custom WebViewClient - this makes it possible for me to have a processdialog and show an error message if an URL couldn't be loaded.
But this creates a problem with JavaScript. The URL I'm loading has some JavaScript which changes some HTML elements CSS styles (showing or hiding element) or redirects to another location onclick - or maybe even want's to show an alert box. But by using the WebViewClient none of those are working.
This is how I load a page:
public void loadUrl(String url)
{
final ProgressDialog dialog = ProgressDialog.show(myActivity.this, "", getString(R.string.loading), true);
final WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
myWebView.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(false);
myWebView.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(false);
WebSettings webSettings = myWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()
{
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
{
Toast.makeText(myActivity.this, url, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show(); //Debugging purposes
if (url.endsWith(".mp4"))
{
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
intent.setDataAndType(Uri.parse(url), "video/mp4");
view.getContext().startActivity(intent);
}
else
{
view.loadUrl(url);
}
return true;
}
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url)
{
//Toast.makeText(myActivity.this, "Oh no!", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
dialog.dismiss();
}
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCode, String description, String failingUrl)
{
Toast.makeText(myActivity.this, description, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
String summary = "<html><body><strong>" + getString(R.string.lost_connection) + "</body></html>";
myWebView.loadData(summary, "text/html", "utf-8");
}
}); //End WebViewClient
myWebView.loadUrl(url);
}
This could probably be done in a smarter way, but I'm new at both Java and Android development...
Is it possible for me to enable the JavaScript for the WebViewClient at all? Removing the WebViewClient solves th开发者_StackOverflowe problem, but then I can't catch events when the page errors or is finished loading.
I don't know what your exact problem is, but i can enable the JavaScript and a custom WebViewclient
without any problem:
WebView vistaWeb = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
vistaWeb.setWebChromeClient(new MyCustomChromeClient(this));
vistaWeb.setWebViewClient(new MyCustomWebViewClient(this));
vistaWeb.clearCache(true);
vistaWeb.clearHistory();
vistaWeb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
vistaWeb.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
The proper way to enable JavaScript is by add the below two lines:
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
Even if after adding its not working then try adding the below line.
mWebView.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);
Now It should work. :)
Try this to enable javascript
WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
myWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
myWebView.loadUrl(url);
What happened in my case : I was serving local html files and when applying
web.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
web.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
but then my urls stopped working. Solution to make both JS and local href work was to add
web.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess(true);
web.getSettings().setAllowFileAccessFromFileURLs(true);
where
web = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.embedded_web);
-> Hello Please Try This Code This Code Run Fine
-> For More Information of Documentation Please Visit https://developer.android.com/guide/webapps/webview#java
-> This Link Work Fine in Nov 2019 Currently I Don't Know
-> Your XML Code For Design is
<?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"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context=".MainActivity">
<WebView
android:id="@+id/webview"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
/>
</LinearLayout>
-> And Your Java Code For Backend is
package com.developer.harshil.kaneria.webview;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.webkit.WebResourceRequest;
import android.webkit.WebSettings;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.webkit.WebViewClient;
public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
WebSettings webSettings = myWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
myWebView.loadUrl("https://github.com/Harshil-Kaneria");
}
}
-> Here in Java Code
WebSettings webSettings = myWebView.getSettings();
And This
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
-> It is Allow To JavaScript Run When Page is Load
-> Thanks A Lot For Read.
Do "Javascript-URLs" get routed through shouldOverrideUrlLoading
? Try checking that and if so, return false
for links like that (so that the webview handles the link, not your WebViewClient)
Similar to @mdelolmo answer, but in Kotlin:
webview.setWebChromeClient(WebChromeClient())
webview.setWebViewClient(WebViewClient())
webview.clearCache(true)
webview.clearHistory()
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true)
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true)
How enable programmatically answered in other answers. But some javascripts not worked if your webview is in nestedscrollview. Remove it and add webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
This code happen to works for me, I hope it can helps you and other developer:
webview = findViewById(R.id.WebView);
webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
webview.loadUrl("www.example.com");
