In some web browsers, huge images are automatically resized to fit the screen.
Is it possible to do the same in an Android WebView?
The web page just contain
If your WebView
width is fill_parent
then you can use this code:
Display display=getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
int width=display.getWidth();
String data="<img src='http://example.com/image.jpg' style='width:"+width+"px' />";
webView.loadData(data, "text/html", "utf-8");
And zoom still working!
Same method if height
is fill_parent
.
Yes, it's possible. You can try setting the WebView Layout using the code below. It resizes all Images (Greater than the Device Screen Width
) to the Screen Width. This works for both Orientations (Portrait and Landscape)
webview.getSettings().setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN);
You can add extra margins/padding later to get the spacing right.
webview.getSettings().setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN);
works but is deprecated. This is another solution without LayoutAlgorithm.SINGLE_COLUMN, using CSS:
@SuppressLint("NewApi")
private openWebView() {
if (Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) {
webView.getSettings().setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.TEXT_AUTOSIZING);
} else {
webView.getSettings().setLayoutAlgorithm(LayoutAlgorithm.NORMAL);
}
String data = "<div> your HTML content </div>";
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("file:///android_asset/", getHtmlData(data), "text/html", "utf-8", null);
}
private String getHtmlData(String bodyHTML) {
String head = "<head><style>img{max-width: 100%; width:auto; height: auto;}</style></head>";
return "<html>" + head + "<body>" + bodyHTML + "</body></html>";
}
You could use this:
WebView webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.myWebView);
webView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
webView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
Found this solution here: How to set the initial zoom/width for a webview
I faced the same problem and used Jsoup to help me out and add the required respected CSS. You can easily add attributes or CSS. I my case, I download from many sources various different HTML files, save them and then display them in a Webview. Here is how I parse the HTML before I save it to the database with Kotlin:
// Parse your HTML file or String with Jsoup
val doc = Jsoup.parse("<html>MY HTML STRING</html>")
// doc.select selects all tags in the the HTML document
doc.select("img").attr("width", "100%") // find all images and set with to 100%
doc.select("figure").attr("style", "width: 80%") // find all figures and set with to 80%
doc.select("iframe").attr("style", "width: 100%") // find all iframes and set with to 100%
// add more attributes or CSS to other HTML tags
val updatedHTMLString = doc.html()
// save to database or load it in your WebView
Add Jsoup to your project
Have fun!
My favorite's :
String data = "<html><body ><img id=\"resizeImage\" src=\""+PictureURL+"\" width=\"100%\" alt=\"\" align=\"middle\" /></body></html>";
webview.loadData(data, "text/html; charset=UTF-8", null);
