Android Question How to get the content from the webview click event?

[watesoft]

I have a html database with sqlite, the records like below:

<p>this is a test₁₂₃₄click on it to show commentary </p> ……,many many records!

I use webview to show them,like the pics.

My need is:

Click or touch on the tag of “1234”(only a example),then a pop window will show, the commentary from another database which link to “1234” will show on pop window.

My difficulty:

1. How to raise click event on webview?
2. when click, How to get the content of the tag,for it is the id of commentary record.

I search the forums,but didn't find a good way.
Anyone help me,thank you very much in advance.

I have already seen the webviewextra library before.But I’m a newbie,have just started learning B4A,and not familiar with javascript language.It has been bothering me for a long time,I realy don’t know how to solve this problem. Can you give me prompt or sample if it is convenient. thank you very much.

Can you modify the stored html?

If so then you can change the clickable terms to links and use the OverrideUrl event to handle the clicks.

<p>this is a test_{<a href="http://1234">1234</a>}click on it to show commentary </p> ……,many many records!

In post #4 you added an HREF.
How, in code, would your intercept the HREF http://1234 ?
i.e.
Does this generate an event? If so, what is that event?
I am trying to allow a "click" type of event on an individual <p> line within HTML.

In html string:

Zj_Num=" <a href=" & "B" & cur.GetString2(i) & " name=" & "B" & cur.GetString2(i) & " >" & cur.GetString2(i) & ".</a> "

in Sub webview_Event_PageFinished (Url As String):

javascript="window.location.hash='" & "B" & Txt_Verse.Text  & "'"
wve.executeJavascript(WV_Main,javascript)
