Mark, thanks for looking into this. Unfortunately this has nothing to do with orientation. My app is only in portrait mode - apologies I should have supplied the manifest to make that clear. So I'm not sure any of the things you've mentioned are going to alter the issue. I've used fill_parent and added the manifest line anyway, but the behaviour is still the same. The webview content just disappears.
Please could you try it again in portrait mode only?
