Web View

The web view is used to load the website directly into our app.

To load the website, we required internet permission. This INTERNET permission


should be added in the manifest file.

1.AndroidManifest.xml  Before the application tag

<uses-permission android:name=”android.permission.INTERNET”/>

2.activity_main.xml

<LinearLayout

android:orientation=”vertical”>

<RelativeLayout

android:layout_width=”wrap_content”

android:layout_width=”match_parent”>

<Button

android:id=”@+id/b1”

android:layout_width=”48dp”

android:layout_height=”warp_content”

//We can’t specify the < or > symbols directly. Right-click bulb Extract string
resource  Resource name =”back”  Ok. Now android:text=”@string/back”
comes into the xml file.

android:text=”<”/>

<Button

android:id=”@+id/b2”

android:layout_width=”48dp”

android:layout_height=”warp_content”
//We can’t specify the > symbol directly. Right-click bulb Extract string resource
 Resource name =”next”  Ok. Now android:text=”@string/next” comes into
the xml file.

android:text=”>”/>

<Button

android:id=”@+id/b3”

android:layout_width=”48dp”

android:layout_height=”warp_content”

//We can’t specify the > symbol directly. Right-click bulb Extract string resource
 Resource name =”go”  Ok. Now android:text=”@string/go” comes into the
xml file.

android:text=”go”/>

<EditText

android:id=”@+id/et1”

android:layout_width=”48dp”

android:maxLines=”1”

android:layout_height=”warp_content”/>

</RelativeLayout>

<WebView

android:id=”@+id/wv1”

android:layout_width=”match_parent”

android:layout_height=”warp_content”/>

</LinearLayout>
3. MainActivity.kt

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity()

lateinit var url:EditText

lateinit var btngo:Button

latinit var btnback:Button

lateinit var btmforward:Butoon

lateinit var web:WebView

override fun onCreate(b:Bundle?)

super.onCreate(b)

setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

url = findViewById(R.id.et1) as EditText

btngo = findViewById(R.id.b3) as Button

btnnext = findViewById(R.id.b1) as Button

btnforward = findViewById(R.id.b2) as Button

web = findViewById(R.id.wv1) as WebView

btngo.setOnClickListener({

web.loadUrl(“https:// “ + url.text.toString())

})

btnback.setOnClickListener({

if(web.canGoBack())

web.goBack()
else

Toast.makeText(this,”No history available”,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()

})

btnforward.setOnClickListener({

if(web.canGoForward())

web.goForward()

else

Toast.makeText(this,”No history available”,Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()

})
