Hello,

I have an Android application that is a TabHost with a WebView. I use it to load a specific html file that has a text field in its bottom part.

When I touch the html textfield, the soft keyboard pops up, and hides the textfield, so that I cannot see what I have typed.

Here is the layout:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<TabHost xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:id="@android:id/tabhost"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent">
    <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:id="@+id/main"
        android:orientation="vertical"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
        <TabWidget
            android:focusableInTouchMode="false"
            android:id="@android:id/tabs"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="63dp" />
        <FrameLayout
            android:id="@android:id/tabcontent"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent">
        <LinearLayout
            xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
            android:id="@+id/layout"
            android:orientation="vertical"
            android:layout_width="fill_parent"
            android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
                <WebView
                    android:id="@+id/webview"
                    android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
                    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
                    android:layout_weight="1" />
            </LinearLayout>
        </FrameLayout>      
    </LinearLayout>
</TabHost>

I have tried to configure the AndroidManifest.xml file with android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize" with no success. I have also tried replacing the FrameLayout in my layout with ScollView, but that caused my webview to increase in size indefinitely when the application is running.. this may be due to some javascript I have running on the page.

I have noticed that the android's web browser has a nifty behaviour - in a web page, after the soft keyboard pops up, the web page scrolls smoothly so that the focusable textfield is visible to the user. How can I have this kind of behavior in my applicaiton?
