Android webview not showing

Question

I have created a webview but it is not showing when I run the app. Does anyone know why?

Here is my code. This is where I load the webview and add a url:

_webView = (WebView) LayoutInflater.from(getBaseContext()).inflate(R.layout.clubdir, null); _webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); _webView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true); _webView.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true); _webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()); _webView.loadUrl("http://maps.google.com/maps?q=" + Postcode + "&ui=maps"); adapter = new MergeAdapter(); adapter.addView(ImageView); adapter.addView(header); adapter.addView(fixturesView); adapter.addView(header2); adapter.addView(resultsView); adapter.addView(clubinfo); adapter.addView(ClubInfo); adapter.addView(clubdir); adapter.addView(_webView); adapter.addView(moreinfo); adapter.addView(MoreInfo); setListAdapter(adapter);

Here is the layout that I am inflating:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <WebView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="150dp"> </WebView>

What's your layout clubdir contains only webView or anyother? and also, Try to use yourActivity.this for inflating the WebView instead of getBaseContext() — Praveenkumar

Note the almost duplicate lines with a uppercase change in the argument's name for adapter.addView(clubinfo); and adapter.addView(ClubInfo); as well as adapter.addView(moreinfo); adapter.addView(MoreInfo); — Damien

instead of this try this only simple thing:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="fill_parent"> <WebView android:id="@+id/webView" android:layout_width="fill_parent" android:layout_height="150dp"> </WebView> </RelativeLayout>

In your Activity:

 WebView view=(WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView); view.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); view.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true); view.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true); view.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()); view.loadUrl("http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Pizza,texas&ui=maps");

that's it.try hope this will help you.if it works than proceed with adding other things

hi that worked but it shows the entire web page is there a way to just show the map
i just passed the url of home page.whatever u want to see pass url inside it.it will help you.
@LukeBatley Then, you better try the MapView with your needed size with it.
