Question

I have some html pages which I want to display as an additional information section. Is the only way I can display them on the screen using uri.parse(“htmlpage”) and if so is there a way I can hide the url string?

Answer 1

Its not clear whether the pages are web pages or not. If they are not web pages then you can use a webview in a layout.

<WebView  
android:id="@+id/my_webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>

and populate like this in onCreate

View tView = findViewById(R.id.my_webview);
WebView webView = (WebView)tView;
webView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/EULA.html");

(Put the file into an “assets” folder at the top level of your project).
I think this should be easy to adapt for web pages.
