Hi,
This is a amazing work in android webview. Thanks for the effort. Presently I am try to make a selection in webview and save it in the android DB. I am able to save the serialized string from your code but I am not able to deserialize the string. I am getting this error
"Uncaught Error: INDEX_SIZE_ERR: DOM Exception 1"

when I call the rangy.deserialize(selectedrange).

Please help me to save and highlight the text in webview by using your excellent idea.

Thank You,
Abu Saad Papa

Hello,

Nice job done by the developer which allows us to use maximum functionality on webView content. I have only one complain that when i try to select text, selection area gets updated so slowly as it shows effect after drag end. Even this thing is happening on your demo project as well.

Can you please advise what this OSS is licensed under?

Thank you and Best Regards,

Wei

If used on a device that is not in English metrics, float values are represented by commas and not dots, i.e. 302.2 will appear as 302,2 in French for example.

This causes all call to javascript methods with float values to fail, for example:

android.selection.startTouch(100,00000, 20,00000);

A way to make this work in all cases would be to surround floatvalues by single quotes:

android.selection.startTouch('100,00000', '20,00000');

and parse them to float in the javascript methods (parseFloat(value))

Hy, I'm applying the selection on a webview which is put horizontally, so I scroll over the webview horizontally to go from a page to another. when I want to make the selection the drag handlers show only on the first page but do not show on the others, while the quickAction popupwindow and the actual selection show everywhere. I tried to manipulate the x of startParams in drawSelectionHandlesHandler I decrease it by the screen width so it can show on the next page, but still not working.
when I apply createSelectionLayer(context) the context given is the one of the webview, I was wondering if there is a way to give the context of the parentLayer where the webview is initialized.
Any suggestion or hint would be appreciated,
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
First of all I really appreciate the hard work as this is a very nice tool which we have been using in our app.
But the selection seems not to work on Samsung Tab since the default behaviour on the samsung devices is to show their own text selection tool which has copy search and other menu items and hence I am unable to use the custom text selection on the device. Any help or advice would be really appreciated as any workaround is not working too well for me.

iam try to use your example and i want
this.loadUrl(filePath); to change this.loadData(PAGE_HTML, "text/html","utf-8") -- PAGE_HTML is sample data and its look like

<html>
<head>
<script src='jquery.js'></script>
<script src='rangy-core.js'></script>
<script src='rangy-serializer.js'></script>
<script src='android.selection.js'></script>
</head>

bt now pop up window is not working , pls help binush4u@gmail

I have another problem: when I start the selection, the webview can be easily dragged horizontally even if I disabled the horizontal scrollbar.
Any idea how can I disable the drag of the webview itself and keep the drag for the selection.
Thank you again for all your effort.

Hi

I downloaded your latest zip and ran the code directly on my device. The activity with latin text pops up, but no selection is possible.

I cannot see any errors in Eclipse.

Any ideas?
Thanks

Good Day,

I have successfully executed this sample project using Eclipse, but i have this problem... When I add a simple button in the html file provided and attach an event to that button(I would like to call a javascript function), the javascript is not triggering.

Also, I tried to call a javascript function inside the BTWebView class at the OnActionItemClickListener whenever an item is clicked, calling a javascript using this:
this.loadUrl("javascript: testFunction();"); but it's not triggering.

Hope to hear from you Soon.

First off thanks for the WebView, it works brilliantly.

I have however tried it with an older phone and cannot see the cursor within the webview, nor can I see text being highlighted on selection.

Is this a known issue? Am I doing something wrong?

Matt

i tried

BTWebView web=new BTWebView(this);

web.evaluateJavascript("javascript:android.selection.getRange();", new ValueCallback() {
@OverRide
public void onReceiveValue(String value) {
Log.e("text",value);
}
});

cant able to select the test

           public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url)  
           {  
               /* This call inject JavaScript into the page which just finished loading. */  
              Log.d("call","call java script");

              loadUrl("javascript:(function() { " 
                       +  
                        "var script=document.createElement('script');" +
                        "script.type='text/javascript';" +
                        "script.src='file:///android_asset/jquery.js';" 
                         +
                        "document.getElementsByTagName('head').item(0).appendChild(script);"+  
                        "})()");

             ....

                           }

Hi,

Selection not working when we add setZoomSupport enabled, when we make pinch zoom and select the text its not working. if we don't add zoomSupport enabled then everything works fine

Thanks,
Suriya

The selection project stops working as we load a dynamic web page. It does not perform any action on the long click. What i did : I just made some changes

1. BtWebView.java : in setup() changed the line : this.loadUrl("http://www.google.com") and run the project after giving the network permissions. It loads the web page and then I tried to select the text then found that nothing happen after the long touch event.

very good work with this library!
Is there a way to get the html source of the highlighted text?
