I am using the following code for encoding the html file which is in my asset folder. I have gone through various link here but was not successful. Here is my piece of code.
WebSettings settings = myWebVeiw.getSettings();
//settings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
//myWebVeiw.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
settings.setDefaultTextEncodingName("utf-8");
//settings.setDefaultTextEncodingName("ISO-8859-1");
myWebVeiw.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/"+totaldays+".html");
Although it is working for other characters but it is not able to encode †.as it prints same on the web view. Please suggest me what to do.
Any help will be appreciated.
You need to set the WebSettings default text encoding to utf-8. And after force the html header charset to utf-8. Exmple:
String htmlText = "<html> your page here </html>";
WebView web = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview); // get your webview from the layout
WebSettings settings = web.getSettings();
settings.setDefaultTextEncodingName("utf-8");
web.loadData(htmlText, "text/html; charset=utf-8", "utf-8");
That works for me on android 2.2.1, 4.0.4 and 4.1.2.
Could you try and check:
myWebVeiw.loadDataWithBaseURL("file:///android_asset/"+totaldays+".html", null, "text/html", "utf-8",null);
