I have this piece of code:
TextView noteView = (TextView) view.findViewById(R.id.content);
noteView.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
noteView.setText(Html.fromHtml(noteView.getText().toString()));
I need to open links in a webview, not in a browser... is this possible?? how can I do??
Thanks in advance..
additional, you can do this.
package com.TextHtml;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Context;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.text.Html;
import android.text.Spannable;
import android.text.SpannableStringBuilder;
import android.text.method.LinkMovementMethod;
import android.text.style.ClickableSpan;
import android.text.style.URLSpan;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Toast;
public class TextHtml extends Activity {
private TextView tv;
static Context ctx=null;
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
ctx=this;
tv = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.tv);
String htmlLinkText = "<a href="/" mce_href="/""http://www.google.com/"><u>hello google </u></a>";
tv.setText(Html.fromHtml(htmlLinkText));
tv.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
CharSequence text = tv.getText();
if(text instanceof Spannable){
int end = text.length();
Spannable sp = (Spannable)tv.getText();
URLSpan[] urls=sp.getSpans(0, end, URLSpan.class);
SpannableStringBuilder style=new SpannableStringBuilder(text);
style.clearSpans();//should clear old spans
for(URLSpan url : urls){
CustomerTextClick click = new CustomerTextClick(url.getURL());
style.setSpan(click,sp.getSpanStart(url),sp.getSpanEnd(url),Spannable.SPAN_EXCLUSIVE_EXCLUSIVE);
}
tv.setText(style);
}
}
private static class CustomerTextClick extends ClickableSpan{
private String mUrl;
MyURLSpan(String url) {
mUrl =url;
}
@Override
public void onClick(View widget) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
Toast.makeText(ctx, "hello google!",Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
}
Yes, you can do that, it's pretty simple task with WebView, you need to declare a WebViewClient object and override the public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading (WebView view, String url) method, there you can filter urls or give some customized functionality.
In your case, to stay on the WebView, you would need to return false on that method.
Check out this tutorial.

EDITED:
It seems your question is how to handle the click event on the TextView's url. As it's suggested on this question you can filter the ACTION_VIEW intent on your WebView containing Activity. If you need more guidance about intent-filters, check this out.
