I’m trying to make an app for a website, basically just loads the website. I know how to make it and everything, and I’ve set up webviews, but I’m not sure what I’m doing wrong.

So basically my main class loads a menu, it has buttons for like home, forums, inbox, etc. That all works fine, but when I hit a button, that calls the webview, and that’s when it crashes.

Here’s my code for the webview:

public class OpenHome extends Activity{

WebView myWebView;

public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
    view.loadUrl(url);
    return true;
}

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.webview);

    WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.WebView);
    WebSettings webSettings = myWebView.getSettings();
    webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
    myWebView.loadUrl("http://www.se7ensins.com");


}

@Override
public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
    // Check if the key event was the BACK key and if there's history
    if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && myWebView.canGoBack()) {
        myWebView.goBack();
        return true;
    }
    // If it wasn't the BACK key or there's no web page history, bubble up to the       default
    // system behavior (probably exit the activity)
    return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
}

I have all the imports and stuff, but when I run the webview and try to load the page, it just unexpectedly closes the app, also I enabled internet permissions in the android manifest.

Here’s the Logcat:

I think your code is almost perfect..

just need to change one line

write this line

myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.WebView);

instead of

 WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.WebView);

just remove WebView object bcz you already define in global..

and may be some problem in you webview.xml file ?

check it first.

here is samle code for webview.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent" android:orientation="vertical"
    xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android">
    <android.webkit.WebView android:id="@+id/WebView"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    </android.webkit.WebView>
</LinearLayout>

Update
One thing did you add .OpenHome activity in your menifest.xml file

How to check LogCat

go Window >> Show view >> other >> Android >> LogCat

How to add activity in menifest.xml

open AndroidMenifest.xml from you project directory
and add this line

<activity android:name=".OpenHome"></activity>

how to start new activity

Intent intent = new Intent(your_main_class.this,OpenHome.class); 
startActivity(intent);

where your_main_class is your main class name .
