if URL like this
file:///android_asset/mypage.html?para=1
that time it is not working .
How to solve this problem help me
why do we need to surround the variable msgToSend within quotes??
After to remove java's ", the parameter passed to myBrowser.loadUrl() become javascript:callFromActivity("msgToSend").
So "msgToSend" is passed to javascript:callFromActivity() as a String.
Good tutorial... Will try to do something crazy with this. i really appreciate you..!!
