Ok so what i do is the following:
i have a html string i show in a WebView like this:
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("",htmlText, "text/html","utf-8", null);
i also have a local css file i want to apply to that html String in the webView.
i looked this up for a while but no solution seemed to work.
There should be a way to save the css file in the assets folder and call it from somwhere but i dont have an idea how.
and suggestions?
You can't write anything in the assets folder.
Since you have both the html and the css, I think you can insert css text into the head tag some how like this way
int pos = htmlText.toLowerCase().indexOf("</head>");
if(pos != -1) {
String newHtmlText = htmlText.substring(0, pos) + String.format("<style>%s</style>", cssText) + htmlText.substring(pos + "</head>".length());
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("",newHtmlText , "text/html","utf-8", null);
}
disclaimer: untested :))
Since i didnt have a nor nor tag i just added them and put the style in the and my html-text in a like this:
String htmlWithCss = "<html><head><style type=\"text/css\">" +css +"</style></head><body>" + htmlText +"</body></html>";
and displayed it in the webView like this:
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("", htmlWithCss, "text/html","utf-8", null);
This is just to show how to do it when you have blank html-formated text wothout tags around it. i will acceppt J.S. Taylor's answer nevertheless since it showed me basicly what to do.
