Change Background color and font color

Question

I want to change my WebView\'s background color and font size.

Answer 1

You could call some javascript that would modify the CSS of the loaded page.

Answer 2

Assuming that you have defined your webview in an XML layout resource you can do the following:

WebView myWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.myWebView);
myWebView.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#000000"));
myWebView.getSettings.setDefaultFontSize(10);

You may also want to enable javascript and create a simple WebClient to handle page loading

Hope it helps!

Answer 3

I would think you can't - unless you control the html data displayed.

The font and background are controlled by the html data feed to the Webview and not the Webview itself.
