Displaying Android asset files in a WebView?
Well, I found something that seems to work (on 1.6 and 2.2), in spite of a warning that it would recurse.
I also discovered that a css style-sheet link inside the first and second page both work without the following intercept. Odd and it makes me a bit nervous. Thoughts?
Here's the code:
WebView wv = (WebView)this.findViewById(R.id.splashWebView);wv.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() { @Override public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) { view.loadUrl(url); return true; } }); wv.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/html_no_copy/demo_welcome.html");Here's the file contents:
demo_welcome.html:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"><html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <title>Demo Html</title> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="demo.css" /> </head> <body> <H1>Testing One Two Three</H1> <a href="test.html">CLICK HERE</a><p> <a href="file:///android_asset/html_no_copy/test.html">OR HERE</a> </body></html>test.html:<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd"><html> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1"> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="test.css" /> <title>Insert title here</title> </head> <body> <H1>TEST.HTML</H1> </body></html>
