Open offline html file

[Shay]

Hi

I wish to create help files in my app, and per Erel suggestion to use html files
so I created html files, and copied it to new sub folder,

But how do I open/show it?

Thanks
Shay

You can load it with WebView.LoadUrl.

file:///android_asset

is the location of the assets folder. Make sure to reference the files with lower cased names.

already tried both these options - what am I missing? (geting white screen)

Dim url As String
'url="file:///" & File.DirDefaultExternal& "/help/mainmenu_e.htm"
url="file:///android_asset/help/mainmenu_e.htm"

WebView1.LoadHtml(url)

 

[Erel]

You should use LoadUrl. LoadHtml expects an Html string.

solved

url="file:///" & File.DirDefaultExternal&"/help/mainmenu_e.htm"

WebView1.LoadUrl(url)
