Hi, I'm trying (desperately) to view a protected url in a WebView instance. I can view the url just fine using curl:
curl -u username:password http://somesite.com/somefolder I'm trying the same with a WebView: WebView wv = ...; wv.setHttpAuthUsernamePassword("somesite.com", "", "username", "password"); wv.loadUrl("http://somesite.com/somefolder";); but this does not work, I always get an empty output from that url (because I haven't authenticated I suppose). I get the same output as if I were to use curl without specifying username/password, or if I had just copied the plain url into a web browser. I also tried to supply a WebViewClient and override onReceivedHttpAuthRequest(), but it doesn't even get called: class AWebViewClient extends WebViewClient { @Override public void onReceivedHttpAuthRequest(WebView view, HttpAuthHandler handler, String host, String realm) { Log.e(TAG, "This is never called....."); } } anyone have any idea what I can do here? Since curl is working, I'm sure it must be possible to get this to work? Thanks -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Android Developers" group.
