Question

I have to show a text in three parts, so i have used Html.fromHtml like this:

txtvw.setText(Html.fromHtml("<p align=right> <b> "
                    + "Hi!" + " </br> <font size=6>"
                    + " How are you "+"</font> </br>"
                    + "I am fine" + "  </b> </p>"));

The HTML is correct but in device it’s showing in one line.

my xml declaration of textview is:

   <RelativeLayout
    android:id="@+id/Home"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="60dp"
    android:background="@drawable/transparentfooter"
    android:layout_above="@+id/bottombar" >


     <TextView 
    android:id="@+id/txt"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:textColor="@android:color/white"/>

    </RelativeLayout>

Answer 1

The way you used the <br> tag is inappropriate. Use the following:

txtvw.setText(Html.fromHtml("<p align=right> <b> "
            + "Hi!" + " <br/> <font size=6>"
            + " How are you "+"</font> <br/>"
            + "I am fine" + "  </b> </p>"));

It should be <br/> and not </br>
I have tested this code and it displays the 3 lines as expected.
