I need to select some characters (change background color) of the view. Of course I need to change those selected char. using my Java code. How can it be done ? Can you post a short example ? Sorry I have no example, but basically, it's not possible to change the content of the WebView. All you can do is loadUrl() new URLs. However, you can loadURL(javascript:methods()) to call JavaScript code in your WebView content. That will do the work of changing the color using the DOM, or anything dynamic you need. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

make it a DOM node than its possible as most DOM objects are sleectable in webview On Sep 8, 4:59 am, Nanard bsegon...@free.fr wrote: Hi, I like WebView component.

OK, thanks. I will check how DOM objects work on Android... --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.

Jason Proctor wrote: the regular WebKit has a method to run arbitrary javascript and return any results. if you gave the text a DOM ID then you could select it via this method. unfortunately it looks like the Android interface to WebKit doesn't include this facility. You can use loadUrl() with javascript: URLs. However, I don't know where you'd get the DOM ID, unless it was via a call from Javascript into Java via addJavascriptInterface(). -- Mark Murphy (a Commons Guy) http://commonsware.com | http://twitter.com/commonsguy _The Busy Coders' Guide to *Advanced* Android Development_ In Print! --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups Android Developers group.
