Supported html tags on Android TextView

问题

I need an official list of supported html tags on Android TextView. I'm using textView.setText(Html.fromHtml(label)); but I don't know wich tags are supported.

回答1:

Note:

This targets API 27. Earlier versions are NOT guaranteed to support the tags seen in this list, and same for later ones (they could be removed).

Mark Herscher's comment got me thinking: it there are new tags, but they're not documented in plain-text anywhere. I figured the HTML tags would need to be declared somewhere, if not in the docs, definitively in the code. Otherwise the code wouldn't be able to convert it. Obviously there are cases where it doesn't appear in plain text, and handling works with interfaces and overridden classes, but fortunately, Android keeps it in plain text.

For future versions: you can either use IntelliJ or some other IDE to explore the source code of Html.java, or you can always go to the AOSP site. Html#fromHtml(String, int) calls Html#fromHtml(String, Int, ImageGetter, TagHandler. The last method creates a HtmlToSpannedConverter, and returns the result of the conversion. Dug into that code, and I found this method:

private void handleStartTag(String tag, Attributes attributes) {
    if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("br")) {
        // We don't need to handle this. TagSoup will ensure that there's a </br> for each <br>
        // so we can safely emit the linebreaks when we handle the close tag.
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("p")) {
        startBlockElement(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes, getMarginParagraph());
        startCssStyle(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes);
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("ul")) {
        startBlockElement(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes, getMarginList());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("li")) {
        startLi(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes);
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("div")) {
        startBlockElement(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes, getMarginDiv());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("span")) {
        startCssStyle(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes);
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("strong")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Bold());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("b")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Bold());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("em")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Italic());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("cite")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Italic());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("dfn")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Italic());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("i")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Italic());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("big")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Big());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("small")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Small());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("font")) {
        startFont(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes);
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("blockquote")) {
        startBlockquote(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes);
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("tt")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Monospace());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("a")) {
        startA(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes);
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("u")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Underline());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("del")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Strikethrough());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("s")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Strikethrough());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("strike")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Strikethrough());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("sup")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Super());
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("sub")) {
        start(mSpannableStringBuilder, new Sub());
    } else if (tag.length() == 2 &&
            Character.toLowerCase(tag.charAt(0)) == 'h' &&
            tag.charAt(1) >= '1' && tag.charAt(1) <= '6') {
        startHeading(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes, tag.charAt(1) - '1');
    } else if (tag.equalsIgnoreCase("img")) {
        startImg(mSpannableStringBuilder, attributes, mImageGetter);
    } else if (mTagHandler != null) {
        mTagHandler.handleTag(true, tag, mSpannableStringBuilder, mReader);
    }
}

Which does contain all of the supported HTML tags. This list might change in future versions (it did from the original answer I had), but you can dig through the source yourself to find it in later versions. With the above code, this is the currently supported list:

br
p
ul
li
div
span
strong
b
em
cite
dfn
i
big
small
font
blockquote
tt
a
u
del
s
strike 
sub
sup
img 
h1
h2
h3
h4
h5
h6

Further methods cover supported attributes (in <a href="">, href is an attribute):

---

img:

src

---

font:

color
face

size is apparently not supported.

---

a:

href

---

p, ul, and div calls startBlockElement, which gives one attrib:

text-align

Something special worth noting about this is the supported align variables.

• center - standard and self-explanatory
• start - aligns left
• end - aligns right

start and end might be inverted in RTL layouts - I haven't tested.

---

span and p, and li calls startCssStyle, which gives access to:

text-decoration
background-color or background
color

text-decoration seems to be limited to line-through.
