Question

I have html text that I want to show in webview.

As specification, data must be URI-escaped.
So I tried to use URLEncoder.encode() function, but that will not help me, as it converts blank space with plus sign.

So is there any encoding function available?

Answer 1

As @Seb said, I created my own function that worked for me:

public String encodeHTML(String s)
{
    s = s.replaceAll("#", "%23");
    s = s.replaceAll("%", "%25");
    return s;
}

Any improvement in this approach will be appreciated.
