[android-developers] Re: webview can not display twitter page
Webviews support redirecting without an issue. other than the suggestions on StackOverflow, i'd also check SSL certificate exception (i recall getting one on android versions below 2.3.3) To verify you could either use the proper handler to catch those or just open the link in your native browser and see if it asks you to authorize the certificate (if it does, it means it will cause the failure in the webview).

Looks like this can be fixed by setting the user-agent: webView.getSettings().setUserAgentString(Mozilla/5.0 (Linux; U; Android 2.0; en-us; Droid Build/ESD20) AppleWebKit/530.17 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0 Mobile Safari/530.17); See also: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6625316/webview-not-displaying-twitter-on-some-droids http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8056063/android-mobile-twitter-page-in-webview-not-opening http://stackoverflow.com/questions/8951251/getting-blank-page-in-android-webviewclient and others. -- Simon On Friday, July 29, 2011 4:05:10 AM UTC-6, Ethan Gao wrote: I am developing an app with twitter sharing feature.
