div tag with Html.fromhtml

Question

I have read from various blogs that div tag is supported by Html.fromHtml but it doesn't support style attribute.

What i want to do is to assign a background color as specified by the string which contains the html tags. Something like

    <p style="background-color:green;">This is a paragraph.</p>

If style attribute is not supported by Html.fromHtml(), is there any other way such that I can change the bgcolor using html tags.

Thanks.

you should use Html.TagHandler [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4044509/android-how-to-use-the-html-taghandler][1] [1]: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4044509/android-how-to-use-the-html-taghandler — Mojtaba Haddadi, May 20 '13 at 07:21
