How To Set Webview As Non-fullscreen?

I am trying to use a WebView in my Android application. I am creating my webview in code-side (not in XML). My problem is; when I call loadUrl method of webview, the webview goes f

Solution 1:

Quite possibly what you are seeing is not your activity, but the Browser application, because the URL you linked to did a redirect. Use WebViewClient and shouldOverrideUrlLoading() to catch the redirect and send it back to your own WebView.

Solution 2:

@Mahtias Lin, please see my code to create and use WebView;

WebViewwebView=newWebView(this);

RelativeLayout.LayoutParamsp=newRelativeLayout.LayoutParams(LayoutParams.FILL_PARENT, 416);

WebSettingswebSettings= webView.getSettings();
webSettings.setSavePassword(false);
webSettings.setSaveFormData(false);
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

webView.setLayoutParams(p);
webView.loadUrl("http://www.google.com/");

Above code is not set my webview to 416px height.

@CommonsWare, I tried your suggested with following code and amazingly it works, thanks.

webView.setWebViewClient(newWebViewClient() {  
   @OverridepublicbooleanshouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)  
   {  
       view.loadUrl(url);
       returnfalse;

    }  
 });  

But this usage brought some new problems. When I override shouldOverrideURLLoading, the webview displays with no-addressbar, no-navigation (back, forward etc...)?

And also, the webview doenst accept user inputs?

Ok, I am editing my question :)

I searched and I found the following additional set to make webview to able to get inputs;

webView.requestFocus(View.FOCUS_DOWN);

On the other hand, I guess I will create my own back, forward buttons and address-bar for my webview. I will also attach "what happened" to this thread when I create my buttons and address-bar.

Best,

Solution 3:

WebView wb=newWebView();
wb.setInitialScale(60);

this is used for set layout of the emulator. 60 means % value. we can use 0% to 100%.

Solution 4:

See my reply and comments on how to show a webview inside an activity in the middle of screen

Apply LayoutParams to your WebView or to the Layout (i.e. LinearLayout) that's surrounding the WebView, if any, i.e. setLayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams(200, 200));
