I'm trying to get a header "54dp" and a the rest of the activity be a WebView.
When I preview my activy in the "Graphical Layout" within eclips it looks good. But when run the application on the phone or emulator the webview takes up the entire screen.
This is what the preview looks like and how I want it:
But this is what I see when I run the app:
This is what the layout xml looks like:
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="@drawable/page_background"
>
<LinearLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:id="@+id/Layout_Header"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="54dp"
android:orientation="horizontal"
android:background="@drawable/container_header"
android:paddingLeft="16dp"
android:paddingRight="16dp"
>
<ImageView
android:id="@+id/imgHeaderLogo"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="0dp"
android:layout_height="46dp"
android:contentDescription="@string/img_header_logo_description"
android:src="@drawable/header_logo"
android:layout_gravity="center"
/>
</LinearLayout>
<WebView android:id="@+id/web_engine"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
/>
</LinearLayout>
SOLUTION:
in the activity java file I had this:
WebView browser = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.web_engine);
WebSettings webSettings = browser.getSettings();
setContentView(browser);
When I should have had this:
setContentView(R.layout.activity_sign_in_web_view);
