Using webview.loadUrl(url)
method I open an url. If I click any Button
on the view it directs to another page. Now I want to get the url of the directed page. how can I get it?
I also want the content that is displayed on the webview. How to get the content of the WebView
?
please see my answer
may it will help you...!!!!
WebView webview = new WebView(context);
webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient()
{
@Override
public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url, Bitmap favicon) {
super.onPageStarted(view, url, favicon);
Log.d("WebView", "your current url when webpage loading.." + url);
}
@Override
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
Log.d("WebView", "your current url when webpage loading.. finish" + url);
super.onPageFinished(view, url);
}
@Override
public void onLoadResource(WebView view, String url) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
super.onLoadResource(view, url);
}
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
System.out.println("when you click on any interlink on webview that time you got url :-" + url);
return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, url);
}
});
String webUrl = webView.getUrl();
I am assuming that you have set your WebViewClient
.If not then you can do like below,
webView.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
String currentUrl;
private class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
currentUrl=url;
return true;
}
}
Here when you click on any link on the WebView
then it will call shouldOverrideUrlLoading()
and you can get the current url there in currentUrl
.
this is the most simple way of handling this for API > 20: There are obviously other methods with parsers like HTMLCleaner to have more control. However, this is good and simple for getting URL. Each time URL changes in Webview, URL in the request object changes as well.
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, WebResourceRequest request) {
String temp = request.getUrl().toString();
if(temp.isEmpty()){
Log.i(ActivityName, "No url returned!");
}else{
Log.i(ActivityName, temp);
}
return false;
}
you can also make your call by overriding onpagefinished method of webviewclient. I wanted to note this, since this is called when page finishes loading.
