How to load html string in a webview?

i have a html string containing this:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\">
    <html>
      <head>
      <meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1250">
      <meta name="spanish press" content="spain, spanish newspaper, news,economy,politics,sports">  
      <title></title>
      </head>
      <body id="body">  
<!-- The following code will render a clickable image ad in the page -->
        <script src="http://www.myscript.com/a"></script>
      </body>
    </html>

I need to show that website into a webview in android.

I tryed with all this:

webView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, txt, "text/html", "UTF-8", null);
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("x-data://base", txt, "text/html", "UTF-8", null);      
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("notreal/", txt, "text/htm", "utf-8",null);

Also i tryed removing DOCTYPE tag:

txt=txt.replace("<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC \"-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN\">", "");

No one of those have work. I just achieved to show the string into the webview (the html code), but not the website that must be created with that html code.

What is wrong?

Solution 1:

To load your data in WebView. Call loadData() method of WebView

wv.loadData(yourData, "text/html", "UTF-8");

You can check this example

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html

[Edit 1]

You should add -- \ -- before -- " -- for example --> name=\"spanish press\"

below string worked for me

String webData =  "<!DOCTYPE html><head> <meta http-equiv=\"Content-Type\" " +
"content=\"text/html; charset=utf-8\"> <html><head><meta http-equiv=\"content-type\" content=\"text/html; charset=windows-1250\">"+
 "<meta name=\"spanish press\" content=\"spain, spanish newspaper, news,economy,politics,sports\"><title></title></head><body id=\"body\">"+
"<script src=\"http://www.myscript.com/a\"></script>şlkasşldkasşdksaşdkaşskdşk</body></html>";

Solution 2:

You also can try out this

   final WebView webView = new WebView(this);
            webView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, content, "text/html", "UTF-8", null);

Solution 3:

read from assets html file

ViewGroup webGroup;
  String content = readContent("content/ganji.html");

        final WebView webView = new WebView(this);
        webView.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, content, "text/html", "UTF-8", null);

        webGroup.addView(webView);
