I have put in WKWebView in the designer view

Click to expand...

Don't. Add the regular WebView.

No need to do anything special:

B4X:

Private Sub B4XPage_Created (Root1 As B4XView)
    Root = Root1
    Root.LoadLayout("MainPage")
    WebView1.LoadUrl("https://www.google.com")
End Sub

Private Sub WebView1_PageFinished (Success As Boolean, Url As String)
    Log("finished")
End Sub

Erel, Thanks for the tips. So _PageFinished event only applies to Webview but NOT WKWebview.

Thanks

Hello all,

I have changed to Webview instead of using WKWebview as advised above. The funny thing is as follows :

Private Sub WebView1_PageFinished (Success As Boolean, Url As String) <<---- Event will ONLY be raised when i click a link INSIDE my html page.

but when i create a button in native and on click

WebView1.LoadUrl("http://myurl.com") <<----- this will not raise WebView1_PageFinished (Success As Boolean, Url As String)

Question, How can i raise this event for both ways?

It should work in both cases. I guess that your other page never completes to load.

Erel, I tried loading the same page :

1 from native : WebView1.LoadUrl("http://www.mywebserver.com/test.html")
2 another one from a link INSIDE a page - <a href="http://www.mywebserver.com/test.html">CLICK HERE</a>

Only action 2 ---> Raised WebView1_PageFinished event

Try to reproduce it in a small project and upload it.
