Question

I am trying to get a webview into a popup dialog. I can get it to pop up with the webview, but when I try to make it load a Url, it crashes my app… Any help? I have also tried putting the webview settings in OnCreate.

case R.id.calculatorBtn:
        Dialog dialog = new Dialog(DrawingActivity.this);
        dialog.setContentView(R.layout.webviewdialog);
        dialog.setTitle("Calculator");
        dialog.setCancelable(true);
        dialog.show();

IT WORKS FINE UNTIL I ADD THE STUFF BELOW THIS LINE.

         webview = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
        webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
       webview.loadUrl("http://myurl.com/hi.html");

        break;

Answer 1

Could you please supply more code (maybe the entire method/class) so we can see the context in which this is placed. There is a good chance that the previous code is causing this part to crash.
