I'm replicating an app from iOS in Android
Here's how to fill in a form and click a button in a web view:
[gist 8b015912875c8f1e693e /]
activity.java
Button button = (Button) findViewById(R.id.button);
Toolbar toolbar = (Toolbar) findViewById(R.id.myToolbar);
final WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView);
//Set links to show in webview not open in another program.
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
String url = "http://www.alexhedley.com/form.asp";
webView.loadUrl(url);
View.OnClickListener listener = new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
String barcode = "barcode";
String fillIn = "document.getElementById('barcode').value = '" + barcode + "';";
String click = "(function(){document.getElementById('btnEnter').click();})()";
String combined = "javascript:" + fillIn + click;
webView.loadUrl(combined);
}
};
button.setOnClickListener(listener);
activity.xml
<android.support.v7.widget.Toolbar
android:id="@+id/myToolbar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
/>
form.html
<form method="POST" action="form-process.asp">
<label for="barcode">Barcode: </label>
<input id="barcode" name="barcode" type="text" value="" />
<br />
<input id="btnEnter" name="btnEnter" type="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>
manifest.xml
