How to focus on Webview upon selecting an EditText within same Layout in Android?

Question

I have been trying to add EditTexts and WebView in a layout. The trouble is with focussing on WebView. I have tried to look through the answers on the web and Stackoverflow

Answer 1

I encountered the same problem a few weeks ago. The answer is simple, set an onTouchListener to the webview and then set it up as follows:

public boolean onTouch(View v, MotionEvent event) {
    switch (event.getAction()) {
    case MotionEvent.ACTION_DOWN:
    case MotionEvent.ACTION_UP:
        if (!v.hasFocus()) {
            v.requestFocus();
        }
        break;
    }
    return false;
}
