Android: How to disable keyboard on webview for some specific page?

Question

I have one WebView which has a RelativeLayout parent. in WebView when i click on some specific button, it loads another url. i want to disable keyboard on that url. and that url i got in shouldoverrideurlloading(WebView view , Url Url) method.

<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:background="@drawable/background"
    android:gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    tools:context="com.xenopsi.benchmark.BrowserActivity">

    <WebView
        android:id="@+id/browserView"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:paddingBottom="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
        android:paddingLeft="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingRight="@dimen/activity_horizontal_margin"
        android:paddingTop="@dimen/activity_vertical_margin"
        android:scrollbars="none"/>

   </RelativeLayout>

On that method i did:

relativeLayout.setDescendantFocusability(ViewGroup.FOCUS_BLOCK_DESCENDANTS);
webView.setFocusable(false);
webView.setFocusableInTouchMode(true);

but still when i tap on text field of that page , keyboard still shown. if i did same code on onCreate() method of activity, its work fine,

but my problem is want to disable it on shouldOverrideUrlLoading method when my page load.

Okey as you mention you want to hide keyboard for particular link, do something like this,

public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
    Log.e("Loading URL", url);

    view.loadUrl(url);

    if(url.equals(yourUrl)){
        // hide keyboard
    } else {
        // unhide keyboard
    }
    return true;
}

I hope this will Help..

Happy Coding..
