[android-developers] How to load web page in background
How to load web page in background ? As part of my application, Im supposed to present a web-page to the user. The webpage is about .5M (has lot of images and js), so i cant fire an activity, as user has to see the page loading for considerable amount of time, if user is on slow network connection. Is there any way that I can load it in background and show the activity, when the loading is complete?

Re: [android-developers] How to load web page in background
I think u could use HttpClient from http://hc.apache.org/httpclient-3.x/
if you try something like this, it might be useful:
* HttpGet httpget = new HttpGet(http://www.your_url.com);
HttpResponse response = httpClient.execute(httpget);
HttpEntity entity = response.getEntity();
entity.consumeContent();
if (entity != null) {
entity.consumeContent();
}*
I hope it helps you!

Re: [android-developers] How to load web page in background
Thanks Lucas,
Have a small question on the following,
entity.consumeContent();
if (entity != null) {
entity.consumeContent();
}
after consuming, why should we again check for null and consume again ?
Can we use SerializableEntity instead of HttpEntity?
Please share, If you have any link to sample android program.
Thanks

Re: [android-developers] How to load web page in background
Actually we don't need the first consumeContent(); it was a part of test
code and I forgot to take it off. :-D
well... I had never used SerializableEntity, so I can't say whether it
works or not.
I think u can create a class or method that returns the html page's code
and then showing it in a webview from your android app.
something like this:
//show progress dialog for user (wainting)
if (entity != null) {
//get the html code
String content = EntityUtils.toString(entity);
//put the html code in a webview and show the view
}
//hide the progress dialog
Any time.
