Is there a better way to refresh WebView?
- by cdg
Hi all. Ok. I have looked EVERYWHERE and my little brain just can't understand a better way to refresh an activity. Any suggestions that I can understand would be great. :)
Here is the java code:
package com.dge.dges;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.view.View;
import android.webkit.WebView;
import android.widget.Button;
public class dgeActivity extends Activity {
WebView mWebView;
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
mWebView.getSettings();
mWebView.loadUrl("http://www.websitehere.php");
Button newButton = (Button)findViewById(R.id.new_button);
newButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
public void onClick(View v) {
Intent intent = new Intent(dgeActivity.this, dgeActivity.class);
startActivity(intent);
}
});
}
}
And here is the main.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/RelativeLayout"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#000000"
>
<WebView
android:id="@+id/webview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:scrollbars="none"
/>
<Button
android:id="@+id/new_button"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:text="Refresh"
/>
</RelativeLayout>
I don't like the idea of just re-stacking activity after activity. There has to be an easier way to refresh the webview. Please help. :)
