Hi all, I have a WebView in my layout which I want to display a web page in. However the webpage requires Basic Authentication.
If I try to access this web page in the normal android browser, I get prompted for a username and password which then gets remembered and works for the site in future. I want to do the same thing in my application, but when I load the page into the webview it just comes straigt up with the Unauthorised message without prompting. I guess the prompting for Authentication is written in code in the android browser. Does anyone know how to inject a username and password into the WebView? I have done a search arond and found the setHttpAuthUsernamePassword (String host, String realm, String username, String password) Method, But can't seem to get it to work and I can't find anyone else who has either? Not sure if I am giving it the correc parameters as I'm a little confused by what is means as the Realm? I assumed that if the site was myhost.dyndns.org then the hostname would be myhost and the realm would be dyndns.org? This didn't seem to work. I also tried connecting by IP Address but that makes the Realm setting even more confusing? Any ideas on how I can get this working?
