Answer 1

I had a similar issue and solved it in this way:

1. I override the onCreateView() method on the dialog fragment and define all view stuff configuration for my web view.

   @Override
   public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                        Bundle savedInstanceState) {
   
       View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.webview, container, false);
       // do some config
       // some other stuffs
   
       loginpage.loadUrl(url);
       return view;
   }
   

2. On the onCreateDialog() method i just add these.

   @Override
   public Dialog onCreateDialog(Bundle savedInstaceState) {
       Dialog dialog = super.onCreateDialog(savedInstaceState);
       dialog.requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
       return dialog;
   }
   

In my case i wanted to show a dialog with no title. So due the DialogBuilder take care of creating dialog's view i decided to override the onCreateView() and just call the super.onCreateDialog() and add my window configuration.
