i came into this wired situation, my code is as follow
LinearLayout ll = new LinearLayout(this);
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
ll.addView(tv);
tv.setText(Html.fromHtml("<a STYLE=\"text-decoration:none;\" href=\""
+ StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava(elem.getChildText("newsLink")) + "\">"
+ StringEscapeUtils.escapeJava(elem.getChildText("Title")) + "</a>"));
tv.setTextColor(Color.BLACK);
but the style="text-decoration:none"
and tv.setTextColor(color.black)
both not working, the link is still in blue with underscore, any hints on why they're not working? Thanks!
you can try this. such as
String content = "your <a href='http://some.url'>html</a> content";
Here is a concise way to remove underlines from hyperlinks:
Spannable s = (Spannable) Html.fromHtml(content);
for (URLSpan u: s.getSpans(0, s.length(), URLSpan.class)) {
s.setSpan(new UnderlineSpan() {
public void updateDrawState(TextPaint tp) {
tp.setUnderlineText(false);
}
}, s.getSpanStart(u), s.getSpanEnd(u), 0);
}
tv.setText(s);
You can use Spannable
and URLSpan
here to remove hyperlink underline from your code
First of all make your anchor tag text into Spannable
Spannable spannedText = Spannable.Factory.getInstance().newSpannable(
Html.fromHtml(webLinkText));
Create new class URLSpanNoUnderline
and extend it with URLSpan
and override updateDrawState
method. in that method you can set setUnderlineText
to false
then use this method you can remove your link
public static Spannable removeUnderlines(Spannable p_Text) {
URLSpan[] spans = p_Text.getSpans(0, p_Text.length(), URLSpan.class);
for (URLSpan span : spans) {
int start = p_Text.getSpanStart(span);
int end = p_Text.getSpanEnd(span);
p_Text.removeSpan(span);
span = new URLSpanNoUnderline(span.getURL());
p_Text.setSpan(span, start, end, 0);
}
return p_Text;
}
