Whenever you are creating activity  you must add setcontentview your layout  after super call  Because setcontentview bind xml into your activity so that s the reason you are getting nullpointerexception     setContentView R layout webview      webView    WebView  findViewById R id webView1    wv loadUrl  file    android asset xyz html

You are getting the WebView before setting the Content view so the wv is probably null   public class ViewWeb extends Activity              Override           public void onCreate Bundle savedInstanceState                  super onCreate savedInstanceState               setContentView R layout webview                 WebView wv                wv    WebView  findViewById R id webView1                 wv loadUrl  file    android asset aboutcertified html         now it will not fail here
