I Want to timeout my webview if it takes a long time to load showing an error message. I'm using
setWebViewClient
because I need to use the
public void onReceivedSslError (WebView view, SslErrorHandler handler, SslError error)
.
I've been looking around and saw I can use the method
onProgressChanged(WebView view, int newProgress)
. Now I can't use this method in
setWebViewClient
and can't figure out how to go about solving this problem. Another issue I have is that the progress bar never goes away once the page is loaded, I can't add a breakpoint to the method
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url)
either.
Web View Settings Method:
public void WebViewSettings(){
webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
webView.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
webView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
webView.canGoBack();
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient(){
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (Uri.parse(url).getHost().equals(urlString)) {
// This is my web site, so do not override; let my WebView load the page
return false;
// Otherwise, the link is not for a page on my site, so launch another Activity that handles URLs
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
return true;
@Override
public void onLoadResource(WebView view, String url) {
// Check to see if there is a progress dialog
if (progressDialog == null) {
progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(context);
progressDialog.setTitle("Loading...");
progressDialog.setMessage("Please wait.");
//progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
progressDialog.setIndeterminate(true);
progressDialog.show();
@Override
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
// Page is done loading;
// hide the progress dialog and show the webview
if (progressDialog.isShowing()) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
progressDialog = null;
webView.setEnabled(true);
@Override
public void onReceivedSslError (WebView view, SslErrorHandler handler, SslError error) {
handler.proceed();
@Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCod,String description, String failingUrl) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Your Internet Connection May not be active Or " + description , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
So the issues I have are the progress bar doesn't get removed once the web page has loaded and I need to timeout the webview if it take over a certain amount of time to load. It looks like the progress bar is shown, then is disappears like it should, then starts loading again and wont stop. Thanks
I have updated your webview setting method please find below updated code.
I have added one loaderTimerTask class. Added code for timer and put comment for more understanding. Please update this code if you need.
private boolean isPageLoadedComplete = false; //declare at class level
public void WebViewSettings(){
webView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);
webView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
webView.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
webView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);
webView.canGoBack();
*I had put code here
Timer myTimer = new Timer();
//Start this timer when you create you task
myTimer.schedule(loaderTask, 3000); // 3000 is delay in millies
webView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient(){
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
if (Uri.parse(url).getHost().equals(urlString)) {
// This is my web site, so do not override; let my WebView load the page
return false;
// Otherwise, the link is not for a page on my site, so launch another Activity that handles URLs
Intent intent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
return true;
@Override
public void onLoadResource(WebView view, String url) {
// Check to see if there is a progress dialog
if (progressDialog == null) {
progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(context);
progressDialog.setTitle("Loading...");
progressDialog.setMessage("Please wait.");
//progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
progressDialog.setIndeterminate(true);
progressDialog.show();
@Override
public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
isPageLoadedComplete = true;
// Page is done loading;
// hide the progress dialog and show the webview
if (progressDialog.isShowing()) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
progressDialog = null;
webView.setEnabled(true);
@Override
public void onReceivedSslError (WebView view, SslErrorHandler handler, SslError error) {
handler.proceed();
@Override
public void onReceivedError(WebView view, int errorCod,String description, String failingUrl) {
Toast.makeText(context, "Your Internet Connection May not be active Or " + description , Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
*This class is invoke when you times up.
class loaderTask extends TimerTask {
public void run() {
System.out.println("Times Up");
if(isPageLoadedComplete){
}else{
if (progressDialog.isShowing()) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
progressDialog = null;
webView.setEnabled(true);
//show error message as per you need.
