WebView jump to anchor using loadDataWithBaseUrl

Question

My Android app uses a WebView to display a bunch of HTML code that I generate \'on the fly\'. The HTML code is loaded using the following code:

Answer 1

First of all, you don't need to use javascript. If you loaded content with

webContents.loadDataWithBaseURL("some://dummy/url",...);

you can simply scroll to anchor with

webContents.loadUrl("some://dummy/url#anchor");

Secondly, doing that on onPageFinished without additional control results in never ending loop! When loadUrl finishes onPageFinished get's called again and again.
