I\'m trying to load an html page from a server the page contains a script that links to android sdcard .js file.
Java:
String url =\"http://192.168.8
If you getting "Not allowed to load local resource: file:///android_asset/index.html" error most probably your problem is putting assets folder in wrong location.
For gradle project store your assets folder under src/main/ directory by the java and res folders. Like this:
project-folder
-|project_name
--|build
--|src
---|assets
---|gen
---|java
---|res
For maven project store yout assets under res/ directory
This may help

webview.loadDataWithBaseURL( "file:///android_asset/", html, "text/html",
"utf-8", null );
String htmlStr="<html>..your html data in string..\"data/replace.js\" </html>";
if (htmlStr.contains("\"data/replace.js\"")) {
String html = data.replace("\"data/replace.js\"", "\"file:///storage/emulated/0/documents/HtmlContent/new_replace.js\"");
((Activity) mContext).runOnUiThread(() -> {
loadDataWithBaseURL("file:///storage/emulated/0/documents/HtmlContent/", html, "text/html", "UTF-8", "");
});
}
Try following code to load Html content from sdcard.
String fileName = "something.html";
File lFile = new File(Environment.getExternalStorageDirectory() + fileName);
webview.loadUrl("file:///" + lFile.getAbsolutePath());
to fix this create a folder in "main" called "android_asset" and inside android_asset folder create another folder called "assets" and place your html file in assets and call using this mWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/YOUR HTML FILE.html");
I had the same problem and even though I dont call mWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/assets/YOUR HTML FILE.html"); it still some how works. which i find strange because thats where the html actually is!
So again your folders should look like this main/android_assets/assets/YOUR HTML.html and call with mWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/YOUR HTML FILE.html");
Heres how my oncreate looks.
public class MainActivity extends ActionBarActivity {
private WebView mWebView;
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.activity_main_webview);
// Enable Javascript
WebSettings webSettings = mWebView.getSettings();
webSettings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
mWebView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/index.html");
}
try this :
this.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/www/js/test.js");
but there should be one folder name www->js in your assets folder.
