Android Question Webview loading HTML5

[wirog80]

hi all,
i want to view web page (with HTML5) using Webview control.
the page can post image and choose to access Camera.
in default Web browser or Chrome browser it running well, camera pop-up is shown.

but if i loading with my app using Webview library, the pop-up is not shown.
i have try to use HTML5 wrapper in this :
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/simple-html5-app-wrapper.42875/

and try add this manifest
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.CAMERA" />
<uses-feature android:name="android.hardware.camera" />

still can not shown a pop-up.
maybe someone can solve this?
or Webwview library doesn't support for it..

thanks..

I think that it is only supported in Android 5+: http://caniuse.com/#feat=stream

Why use WebView? Enjoy the fact that B4A creates native applications and access the camera directly.

Because i have a native aplication that access with Webview. Its necesary. Talk me, Erel, webwview library doesn't support for it ? thank you

B4A WebView is a thin wrapper over the native WebView. It supports whatever the native WebView supports.

It's not your answer but it does not work. As the man told you above in this same case he does not work either. And you must believe it. It will work with everything except the Camera and it is a real fact. I think it will play to find another alternative. Thanks for everything
