Pass Keystroke to Webview

[java4never]

Hi!

I'm searching for a method to pass a keyevent to an existing webview.
In fact, this (http://www.b4x.com/forum/basic4andr...-simulate-hardware-keypress-2.html#post120246) is exactly what I need, but I can't get it to work
I'm gettin' the java exception: "This method can not be called from the main application thread.

First, I thought, I need the threading library...
So I've done everything like in the example, but also the example seems to be broken.
Searched for over 2 hours now, but nothing useful found
I would be very lucky, if someone could help!

regards
David W.

Is your WebView displaying a webpage with a form and you want to simulate user input on the form?

If so you can hopefully(!) execute javascript that simulates user input - you can complete form text fields and cause button clicks.

Search the forum for 'execute javascript'.

No

Nope, it’s nothing with js.
I really need an input like provided by this broken library?
Isn’t there anyone, who would like to repair it?
Would be cool!

You can inject Javascript code to the page and emulate the keystrokes.

Not Sure

Hi Erel,

I’m not sure, if it’s that, what I’m looking for.
There isn’t any Webpage or HTML, but only a flashgame, where I want to implement controls.
As I said, the library would do it, and it looks like there are problems with the threading library, as the keysend library uses it, because it needs a new thread to work.
However, if I try to create a new thread, a java exception pops out, which says, that it haven’t found the sub. But the sub is there!

Thanks for helping me.

Solved

Ok, after some testing the problem solved itself, no idea how.
The Treading Library works and so the the library to send keys.
It’s a bit unstable, but it works.

Anyway, thanks for the help
