Easiest way to open a browser button for a specific url
This is a simple application I have and I would like the button I made to launch a specific URL through the browser. Could you guys give me some information to achieve this, as I said, I have a button that is already included in my application. Here's the code - lemme 'knows if you need anything else
.java File
package reseeveBeta.mpi.dcasey;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class ReseeveBetaActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
}
}
.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:orientation="vertical" >
<TextView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Welcome to Reseeve, tap register to begin account creation" />
<Button
android:id="@+id/button1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Register" />
<EditText
android:id="@+id/editText1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:ems="10"
android:inputType="textMultiLine"
android:text="If you already have and account, please login below" >
<requestFocus />
</EditText>
</LinearLayout>
This line should open your embedded browser with the specified URL:
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com")));
Your activity should have the following elements:
//define class variables here
Button btn;
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState)
{
//some code of yours
btn=(Button)findViewById(R.id.button1);
btn.setOnClickListener(this);
//more code of yours
}
//whatever else you have in your source code
public void onClick(View v)
{
//handle the click events here, in this case open www.google.com with the default browser
startActivity(new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW).setData(Uri.parse("http://www.google.com")));
}
It may not be 100% accurate syntax as I just wrote it myself, but you get the idea.
You can do it with Rebol 3, it's easy:
REBOL []
load-gui
view [button "Go" on-action [browse http://msn.com]]
It is a fully functional GUI program that runs on Android AND on the desktop using the same code across all platforms. Take a look at:

Just create one WebView in xml
<WebView
android:id="@+id/web_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_weight="1.0" />
Here is some simple Java code for that
String URL="www.gtumca.co.cc";
WebView wv=(WebView)findViewById(R.layout.web_view);
onClick()
{
wv.loadUrl(URL);
}
