Thanks String and Mark. I really appreciate it. I will try with the html.fromHtml() method with textviews. My ultimate goal is to make an AppWidget with the Widget Package with .wgt file extension or in other words with the widgets that comply with the W3C specifications. My study on android reveals that it has its own widget framework which does not support web widgets. Is it possible to make AppWidgets with WebWidgets.
