Android webview launches browser when calling loadurl

Question

I created an Activity that has a title and a web view in a LinearLayout  In the onResume   method it calls webView loadUrl url   The problem is that the activity first shows the title with the rest of the screen blank  then the device browser is launched with the page for the URL  What I want to see is the page being shown in the WebView below the title  What could be the problem   Edit  Ok  did some further search and found this one   Clicking URLs opens default browser  It points to the WebView tutorial here   Just implement the web client and set it

Answering my question based on the suggestions from Maudicus and Hit.

Check the WebView tutorial here. Just implement the web client and set it before loadUrl. The simplest way is:

myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());

For more advanced processing for the web content, consider the ChromeClient.

If you re using webChromeClient I ll suggest you to use webChromeClient and webViewClient together  because webChromeClient does not provides shouldOverrideUrlLoading  It is okay to use both          webview webViewClient   WebViewClient           webview webChromeClient   Callback    private inner class Callback   WebChromeClient             override fun onProgressChanged view  WebView   newProgress  Int                super onProgressChanged view  newProgress                          if  newProgress    0                    progressBar visibility   View VISIBLE               else if  newProgress    100                    progressBar visibility   View GONE

I was facing the same problem and I found the solution  Android s official Documentation about WebView  Here is my onCreateView   method and here i used two methods to open the urls   Method 1 is opening url in Browser and   Method 2 is opening url in your desired WebView  And I am using Method 2 for my Application and this is my code   public class MainActivity extends Activity      private WebView myWebView         Override      public View onCreateView LayoutInflater inflater  ViewGroup container  Bundle savedInstanceState           View rootView   inflater inflate R layout fragment webpage detail  container  false             Show the dummy content as text in a TextView        if  mItem    null                 Method   1           This following line is working fine BUT when we click the menu item then it opens the URL in BROWSER not in WebView                 WebView    rootView findViewById R id detail area   loadUrl mItem url               Method   2         myWebView    WebView  rootView findViewById R id detail area      get your WebView form your xml file         myWebView setWebViewClient new WebViewClient        set the WebViewClient         myWebView loadUrl mItem url      Load your desired url            return rootView

I just found out that it depends on the formatting of the URL   https   example com example gets opened in the browser https   example com example   with   at the end  gets opened in the webView  My code just uses webview loadUrl url   no need to set webView setWebViewClient new WebViewClient     at least in my case  Maybe that s useful for some of you
