[android-developers] Re: Java Script alert not working in Android WebView

Thanks mark
the alert() method in the html file are working now :) .

Now there are two issues in WebView :
1: I am using a <textarea> in the html file that i am loading in
WebView , and trying to write in Hindi font in it ,
but when i try to write Hindi text it displays as symbol ( rectangle
symbols like [] ) .

when i do the same in firefox browser on desktop it works fine.
any clue how to give support for multiple language in textarea in
WebView ?

2: When I am clicking submit and trying to open the value of textarea
in alert() method in another java script it doesn't work , does it
mean even after using WebChromeClient
its applicable only for vurrent loaded html page and not java scripts
called from that page ?
