This is exactly the same issue I'm having with my own android-web project. The reason I don't see it happen when the user types their user name first, and their password second, is because the soft keyboard is still open. But close the soft keyboard while on the password field and you will see the issue guaranteed.
There were some hints from people that fields actually get changed by android.webkit.WebTextView, which is the root cause. But I'm not exactly sure on the resolution. ~Michael On Aug 26, 4:08 pm, Pradeep Phatak <[email protected]> wrote: > Issue: In my Android application that uses webview for authentication, > the webview is going partially blank upon tapping on password field of > the html page. > If I just type user name and password on the html page, then the issue > is not seen. > > Tested on: Samsung Galaxy tablet (GT-P7510) and Motorola Xoom > > layout file snippet: > > <LinearLayout android:orientation="vertical" > android:layout_width="fill_parent" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:layout_weight="100" > > > <LinearLayout > android:layout_width="@dimen/layout_xlarge_width" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:layout_gravity="center" > android:padding="20dip" > android:orientation="vertical"> > <TextView > android:id="@+id/urlview" > android:layout_width="fill_parent" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:text="@string/test" > /> > <Spinner > android:id="@+id/profile" > android:layout_height="wrap_content" > android:layout_width="fill_parent" > /> > > </LinearLayout> > > <WebView > android:id="@+id/webview" > android:layout_width="fill_parent" > android:layout_height="fill_parent" > android:visibility="gone" > /> > </LinearLayout> > > Code to setup webview: > > webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview); > webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true); > webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true); > webView.clearCache(true); > webView.setScrollBarStyle(View.SCROLLBARS_OUTSIDE_OVERLAY); > setUserAgent(getString(R.string.user_agent_suffix)); > > Other: > > Adding support for zoom on webview or setting up touch and focus > listener did not help in resolving this issue. > > Similar issue and test results are provided in the following post on > stackoverflow:http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7097884/black-flickering-on-honeyc... > > Any help regarding this issue would be useful. > > Thank you! -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
