Question

I would like to know if and how it is possible to add a web link to a TextView widget. In my app, i show some text and adjacent to this text an image. I would like to insert a clickable internet link in the text. Is this possible?

Answer 1

You just need to set the android:autolink property.

<TextView
        android:autoLink="web"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"        
        android:text="http://www.google.com" />
