You also need to annotate the method with @JavascriptInterface if your targetSdkVersion is >= 17 - because there is new security requirements in SDK 17, i.e. all javascript methods must be annotated with @JavascriptInterface. Otherwise you will see error like: Uncaught TypeError: Object [object Object] has no method 'processHTML' at null:1
