Set a TextWatcher<http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.html#addTextChangedListener%28android.text.TextWatcher%29>on your EditText. When your watcher gets notified about changed text you can immediately pass that input on to your WebView. In order to avoid repeated calls to your WebView with incomplete user input you could rewrite your TextWatcher to start a timer when text has changed. The timer waits for one or two seconds until it updates the WebView. It gets cancelled / reset by your TextWatcher as soon as the text changed again.
