Android - WebView = Web page not available

Question

When using a WebView view in my app, no matter what page I force it to visit, it says Web page not found. Here is my code:

MainActivity.java

package com.testing.webview;  import android.app.Activity; import android.os.Bundle; import android.webkit.WebSettings; import android.webkit.WebView;  public class MainActivity extends Activity {     @Override     public void onCreate( Bundle savedInstanceState )     {         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);         setContentView(R.layout.main);          WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView1);         WebSettings webSettings = webView.getSettings();         webSettings.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);         webView.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");             } } 

main.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <LinearLayout     xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"     android:layout_width="fill_parent"     android:layout_height="fill_parent"     android:orientation="vertical">     <WebView         android:id="@+id/webView1"         android:layout_width="fill_parent"         android:layout_height="fill_parent" />                 </LinearLayout> 

It's very basic code as you can see. There is indeed an internet connection as I can open the normal Browser app and visit any webpage like normal.

Answer 1

Are you using the correct Internet permission?

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