iOS Question webview showing blank page

[le_toubib]

hi all :
i try to load a page using this command :

    WebView1.LoadUrl("file://" & File.Combine( File.DirDocuments , ReportPath))

where report path is correct, and the file exists.
i get a blank page, and i get this error :

*** WebKit discarded an uncaught exception in the webView:decidePolicyForNavigationAction:request:frame:decisionListener: delegate: <NSInvalidArgumentException> *** -[__NSPlaceholderArray initWithObjects:count:]: attempt to insert nil object from objects[0]
Application_Inactive
Application_Background
Can't endBackgroundTask: no background task exists with identifier 13bb2d, or it may have already been ended. Break in UIApplicationEndBackgroundTaskError() to debug.

what am i missing

Hi.
Remove file://.it is ios not android

I don't think that the file:// is the problem (though it is worth trying it).

It seems like you are trying to load an invalid html file.

it worked when i removed the file:// . thanks

strangly enough, it worked when i was on iphone 4 and 5s, but still give the same error on ipad mini... is there an explanation to that?

Can you upload the html file that you are loading?

I am also having a problem with the WebView. I am using:

WebView1.Loadurl(File.Combine(File.DirAssets,"readme.htm"))

The simple .htm file is perfectly displayed on my two test devices (iPhone4 and iPad) when in debug mode, but when deploying 'Build Release App' the WebView is completely blank. The program continues to run without error.

???

Use this code instead:

WebView1.LoadHtml(File.ReadString(File.DirAssets, "VADRSP__A_11_06_2015_report.html"))
