Java android webview with a dynamic URL

Good afternoon,

I am quite new to the android development, so please excuse me if my question sounds stupid.

I have created a first layout "main" which consists of a textbox and and a button. The goal of the button is to launch the second layout containing the webview.

What I would like is that when I click on the button, the layout passes the value of the text box (which contains the URL as parameter) to the second layout instead of having a hard-coded URL)

I have been googling, searching for quite a while but so far, not very successful in my searches. Any idea?

Many thanks in advance for your kind help.

  1. Create object of your EditText like you made it for Button

  2. Pass EditText value in Intent

    intent.putExtra("url",edt.getText().toString());

  3. Access this value in your WebviewActivity onCreate()

    String url=getIntent().getStringExtra("url");

  4. Load this url in your WebView.

    webView.loadUrl(url);
