Webview app

anyone got some decent code for webview app? I want to put my site into an app the site already has a mobile view so just need to put it in a web view app. I did play with some code but just can't get it quite right. I would like it to not have a loading bar and be able to use back button to move back through web pages rather than hitting back and being tacken out of app, would be greatfull for any help.

Hey,
the official documentation has a Hello WebView section which basically
does all the things you want except for hiding the progressbar:
developer.android.com/guide/tutorials/views/hello-webview.html
(sry cant post links as a new user)
You may want to read and work through this.
The progressbar can be hidden by calling
Activity.setProgressBarVisibility(false)
for example inside onCreate().

Thanks I did have a go using the codes there but kept messing it up or getting confussed when trying to put all the bits tog just wondered if the code was out there all tog ready for me to use. Lazy I know but hey you don't ask you don't get.

Alright, I dont do this usually, but since I wanted to open a blog for Android since a while (mainly for self-documentation how to do things in code), and needed a first post, I wrote a small template and a description how to use it.
Check it out at
alexsbraindump.blogspot.com/2010/10/simple-webview-app-template.html
You can also download the app code there.

thanks for that although i can not get the progress bar to show.

Hey,
mh yeah I see. You're right. It works on my HTC Desire w/ sense,
but it doesnt work on the emulator with various Android versions.
I couldn't figure out yet why, but I'll look into that a bit more later.

If you are still looking for another tutorial you may want to take a look here:
Building Android Apps with HTML, CSS, and JavaScrip
It starts with the very, very basic HTML and works its way on building a webapp to even converting it into an .apk

Web App
PhoneGap is an open source development framework for building cross-platform mobile apps.

Ok can someone tell what what the heck i am doing wrong, i ma just getting force close all the time.

New to android app development...switching between views or layouts or activities...

Hi,
i am new to developing apps on Android (Windows Phone 7 dev)...how ever i have created my first project (i am a Java developer for many years now, so i really have only problems with Android specific things).
And i already have my first problem and i have not enough knowledge to find the tutorials that i need for this or maybe i am just doing something wrong.
I have a main.xml file and a logon.xml file for the 2 different views (or how ever you call that) i need...i like to switch to logon.xml if i tap a button on main.xml. That works very well (i am using setContentView(R.layout.logon) so far but i am missing the animation between the two UIs...and so far none of the tutorials i have found are working with my scenario...can someone help me out?

[Q] Need help with discount calculator

I am a newbie in android dev.
I want to develop a very small and simple discount rate calculator.
in which there will be drop down menu with options like:
calculate 10%
calculate 20%
calculate 30%
Based on the selection of option from the drop down menu the discount rate should change.
After selection, there will be a textbox which should ask user to enter price.
and on the click even of "Calculate" button, the resultant amount (discounted rate) should be displayed.
I guess it is very simple for you guys. If anyone can help me with the code, i will deeply appreciate.
thank you

ok this is what I have done till now:
I created an Android Project names as :MyDC
MyDC.java
Code:
package com.super.mydc;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.widget.EditText;
import android.widget.TextView;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.view.View;
public class MyDC extends Activity {
private EditText amount1;
private double x=0;
private double y=2.0;
private double z=0;
private TextView tt;
private Button calculate;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle icicle) {
super.onCreate(icicle);
// We want to view some very simple text, so we need a TextView
TextView tv = new TextView(this);
// Put some text to the newly created TextVIew
tv.setText("Test");
// Tell our Application to display the textView
this.setContentView(tv);
super.onCreate(icicle);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
initControls();
}
private void initControls()
{
amount1=(EditText)findViewById(R.id.amount1);
tt=(TextView)findViewById(R.id.tt);
calculate=(Button)findViewById(R.id.calculate);
calculate.setOnClickListener(new Button.OnClickListener()
{public void onClick
(View v) { calculate();}});
}
private void calculate()
{
x=Double.parseDouble(amount1.getText().toString());
z=x-(x*y/100);
tt.setText(Double.toString(z));
}
}
This is main.xml
Code:

"lightbox_new_window": "New window",
"lightbox_toggle_sidebar": "Toggle sidebar"
}
I am able to calculate discount on the button click, BUT i have hardcoded the discount rate.
I want to select discount rate based on the dropdown menu (I don't know how to set dropdown values with different discount rate in this problem)
In the dropdown menu I would like to have values like this:
Type 1 discount
Type 2 discount
Type 3 discount
Here is the respective discount rate for the above drop-down values:
Type 1 discount - 10%
Type 2 discount - 15%
Type 3 discount - 18%

Anyone ? Please Help ?

Im sorry to not be of very much help I studied java as a highschool unfortunately it was senior year and I am good at slacking. I would like to add suggestions though. first off i would try to find someway of implementing a way to get closer increments such as 5 or 1 %. such as a text box. let me sift through your code and see what i can see. are you having specific errors or what. we need some info.

Ok i looked at your code and im having a hard time reading it just because it isnt the norm that I look at. first off ya need to name your variables more recognizable things then x and y. that will make coding immensely more easy. also I am not seeing where you gathered the information from the drop down or spinner. at some point in the code you have to collect the information from the drop down or spinner and use it for the percent. also i didn't see any point where you gave the drop down any values. if you have any questions or anything feel free to pm I have xda app on my phone so even if not im not online ill get a notification on my phone.

Hi,
Yes, I know I haven't defined values to drop down because that is the thing I need help with.
I also posted above this:
"Now the question is how to select discount rate based on selected value from spinner.
PLZ HELP ME WITH THE CODE"
I need help - How to define discount rate based on selection of drop down values.
Please help me with the code....

I also tried doing this quite awhile with an app I was writing and then discovered I had not enough experience to with the android system to write the program I should look it up and fix both of our programs but I've had a migraine for days and I'm just getting close to sleeping but when I get a chance I will look up giving values to the drop down and collecting them unless you want to google it first.
Sent from my Synergized xda Premium Evo

I have tried to find the solution on google but didn't get anything but somehow from google I was able to do (whatever I did above)
thanks, I think that would be great, if you can test my program on your side by that we both will be on the same page.
That's fine, you can test it whenever you get some time.
I appreciate your help!

I would setup radio buttons for the discount percentages
0 10% 0 20% etc.
Name each radio button and use a case statement to set a float to it's value:
switch(radioGroupName) {
case 10Percent:
int discountValue = .10
break;
...
Then do something like:
int discountedAmount = usersAmount - (usersAmount * discountValue);

Try this code.

Re: Need Help
Hello nemoc 23 ,
Firstly thank you very much for replying back with a solution.
It did work and solved my problem upto some extend.
Now what I only want 2 things to be done:
1) Right now, if we enter price in decimal or anything, if the final result is in decimal, it is being displayed as EXACT something like 99.9999999
How to limit the RESULT upto 2 decimal points only ?
2) What I am trying to do is to have this calculator on 3 different pages (in each page I will just modify the discounted rate). So I want a homepage (which will work as MENU) with 3 or 4 buttons and each button should be connected with specific page that will have ITS OWN above discount calculator.
Could you please show me how to create a homepage screen (which will work as MENU) and 3 or 4 buttons on it which are linked with different pages (in each page you can copy the same above calculator and I will modify the rate by myself)
thank you

Why 3 pages? Just do this:
Enter discount amount: ___________
Enter discount rate:______
Discounted Amount: ___________
Easy peasy.

Hello nemoc 23 ,
Just giving you an update. I did try the tutorial you asked me to try. I am having some problem in it which you can see here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=15612542
Coming back my question (this calculator topic) - I created a screen layout to give you an idea what I want to do and need your help with.
This is what I want to do:
In this each button click will open separate page (or I guess it is called activity). I have mentioned on button what each button will open.
Please help me. thanks

Intent i = new Intent(this, calculator1.class);
startActivity(i);
You are still better off creating just ONE new Activity and passing to it which calculator you want to run. It is poor programming to code 3 activities when one will suffice. You'll need "extras" to do this.

Button2 "Calculator2" doesn't do anything and same with 3rd button "exit:
**Please help me!!!**

You got a couple options. First instead of the startActivity() throw in a Toast so you can see if your onClick() is ok. You can also throw some inline clicklisteners (anonymous inner class) inside the setOnClickListener() instead of using 'this'. I find that way is a bit easier to organize.
Annd might I suggest you follow the Java guidelines for capitalisation of class names. Its confusing when reading your code and seeing testcalculator.class when usually instances of objects are lower case while the class name is capitalized. Like TestCalculator.class

question is a little ambiguous and it's just a viewGroup afterall, there are 100's of implementation options. Personally I would use a fragmentDialog, but I could just as easy use any normal viewGroup.

the main problem is the layout doesnt stick to the bottom of the screen.. instead it slides to the top of the screen.
activity_main.xml
PHP:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

There are many examples of view animation both on the developer website and on SO. Sounds like you just need to set animate Y position to move relative ((screen height - (screen height - height of sliding view)) ?
Or just end at absolute (screen height - height of sliding view)

i would have known what to do if i actually understood where to put the code... please can you like fork the code so that i can have an idea of what you are saying and from there i can look up other resources... please

sounds like your wanting someone to write it for you ?
If not then you should just look at doing what I said, getting the height and working out the end position for the anim and setting it programmatically. If you need hints ask away but not sure I have the time to write it for you atm...sorry

[Q] Help needed display fragment with listadapter properly...

Hi guys, I am new to android development and I'm having a little trouble working with a list in fragment.
This is what I'm trying to achieve:
------------------
frag 1
------------------
frag 2 <-- list is here
-----------------
frag 3
-----------------
The list displays 3 strings in one row. This is my fragment code: ( the CustomListViewAdapter is implemented in another file called CustomListViewAdapter.java)
Code:
public class ListActivity extends Fragment{
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
FragmentManager fm = getFragmentManager();
if (fm.findFragmentById(android.R.id.content) == null) {
DataListFragment list = new DataListFragment();
fm.beginTransaction().add(android.R.id.content, list).commit();
}
}
public static class DataListFragment extends ListFragment implements
LoaderManager.LoaderCallbacks<List<Model>> {
CustomListViewAdapter mAdapter;
@Override
public void onActivityCreated(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onActivityCreated(savedInstanceState);
System.out.println("DataListFragment.onActivityCreated");
// Initially there is no data
setEmptyText("No Data Here");
// Create an empty adapter we will use to display the loaded data.
mAdapter = new CustomListViewAdapter(getActivity());
setListAdapter(mAdapter);
// Start out with a progress indicator.
setListShown(false);
}
@Override
public Loader<List<Model>> onCreateLoader(int arg0, Bundle arg1) {
return new DataListLoader(getActivity());
}
}
public static class DataListLoader extends AsyncTaskLoader<List<Model>> {
List<Model> mModels;
public DataListLoader(Context context) {
super(context);
}
@Override
public List<Model> loadInBackground() {
System.out.println("DataListLoader.loadInBackground");
List<Model> entries = new ArrayList<Model>(5);
entries.add(new Model("1", "a","3:48"));
entries.add(new Model("2", "b","4:02"));
entries.add(new Model("3", "c","3:48"));
entries.add(new Model("4", "d","3:52"));
entries.add(new Model("5", "e","3:44"));
return entries;
}
@Override public void deliverResult(List<Model> listOfData) {
...
}
@Override protected void onStartLoading() {
...
}
protected void onReleaseResources(List<Model> apps) {}
}
The 3 fragments are added programmatically in the main activity. MainActivity.java
The problem I am facing is that once the code runs, this fragment 2 overlaps the fragment 1 (both are still visible) that was supposed to be above it. How do I resolve this issue? Please help me figure this out! I believe I'm doing something wrong while adding this fragment.
This is the mainactivity.java
Code:
public class MainActivity extends Activity{
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState){
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main_layout);
FragmentManager fragmentManager = getFragmentManager();
FragmentTransaction fragmentTransaction = fragmentManager.beginTransaction();
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.info_fragment, new InfoActivity());//frag 1
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.list_fragment, new listActivity()); // frag 2
fragmentTransaction.add(R.id.controls_fragment, new ControlsActivity()); //frag 3
fragmentTransaction.commit();
}
}

The layout and views along with the layoutParams control how it looks, the fragments just nest inside the views, that you reference with your resource idents, so however it looks is probably based of the layout or layout parameters that are set in the xml layout

I doubt there is any problem with the xml layout. Here is the main layout file:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http//schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/linlayname"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/info_fragment"
android:layout_weight="3"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp" >
</FrameLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/list_fragment"
android:layout_weight="4"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp" >
</FrameLayout>
<FrameLayout
android:id="@+id/controls_fragment"
android:layout_weight="2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp" >
</FrameLayout>
</LinearLayout>
And this is the list xml:
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http//schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<ListView
android:id="@android:id/list"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
</ListView>
</LinearLayout>

Are you sure you are using android:layout_weight properly ?
It would first occur to me that not all the views (3 that contain the fragments) should/would be variable ... but it suggests they are ? weight is of the unused remainder space, so I would maybe suggest a weight of 0,1,0 meaning the 1st and last you set to wrap_content and they are variable based on content... the middle using a weight of 1 uses any space remaining
so
Code:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http//schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/linlayname"
android:layout_width="match_parent"

Yes that is the way I want it laid out, it looks better now, but the main problem still remains. The listActivity (the middle fragment) starts from the top of the screen and overlaps the first fragment (first one is visible under the list).I think I am adding the fragment at the wrong place?

BTW I think I have flu atm (or a man cold, either way it would kill a woman) so double check whatever I say
Erm, not sure what your doing with ListActivity onCreate() your doing fragment transactions in there ? But will it not always be null when loading anything ? onCreateView() is where it would return the new view to the fragmentManager for attaching... so when it does the transaction in ListActivity your also using android.R.id.content which is a base id for the area that an app runs in (also happens to be a frameLayout) which is what you problem is... personally I would think and design out of this problem a little different ... if you want a chat hit me up on hangouts, happy to help!
