WebView in Android

Using a web view to load a page from Internet

WebView is nothing but the simple view created within the application so as to load the web pages within the application and not exit the application and load in the inbuilt browser.

1.MainActivity.java

package com.sri.webview;

import android.os.Bundle;

import android.webkit.WebView;

import android.app.Activity;

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

WebView wb;

@Override

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);

wb=(WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);

wb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

wb.loadUrl("http://www.google.co.in");

}

}

2.activity_main.xml

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"

    android:layout_width="match_parent"

    android:layout_height="match_parent"

    android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"

    android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"

    android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"

    android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"

    tools:context=".MainActivity" >

    <WebView

        android:id="@+id/webview"

        android:layout_width="match_parent"

        android:layout_height="match_parent" />

</RelativeLayout>

3.Add permission in the android manifest file

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET"/>

4.That's it
