The response of a web service is the following :

<span style="color:#DDFFEE;">You have to pay you bil before <b>12 june 2012</b> for your informations.</span></br></br> You have already a large time.

I want to display this in a TextView.

I can't just simply put the response below in a String and applicate 

myTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml(response));

It doesn't work because it can't be a String.

How can I do this dynamically please ?

You just need to put the String you get as a response, inside the fromHtml call, if it's not a String, maybe you just need to append .toString() to it, to get a String..

textView.setText(Html.fromHtml("<h2>This is HTML</h2>"));

You need to use Html.fromHtml() to use HTML in your XML Strings. Simply referencing a String with HTML in your layout XML will not work.

myTextView.setText(Html.fromHtml("<h2>Title</h2><br><p>Description here</p>"));
