loadUrl is working with link not for local html page (In fragment not activity)

Question

Requirement is to load local html page in Fragment.I can able to load external links, getting issue when i give file path for local html page.

Error:- file_not_found

able to load external links no issue using Loadurl() ex:- view.loadUrl("https://stackoverflow.com/questions/ask?wizard=1");//working view.loadUrl("file:///assets/"+fileName); //not working

@SuppressLint("ValidFragment")
public class FiveFragment extends Fragment {
WebView mWebview ;
public String fileName = "help.html";
public FiveFragment() {

    // Required empty public constructor
}
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); }
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container, Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    View view=inflater.inflate(R.layout. fragment_five, container, false);
    mWebview = (WebView) view.findViewById(R.id.webview);
    mWebview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    mWebview.loadUrl("file:///assets/"+fileName);
    return view;

}
}

Looks like `help.html` is not immediate file under assets . if its inside another directory then you need to provide directory name also . And i think it should be `mWebview.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/"+fileName);`. — ADM, Feb 13 '19 at 06:13

no, it is not duplicate, reference you have provided extends activity, here it is fragment , given in oncreateview() without return it raises error — joe, Feb 13 '19 at 06:42

Create assets folder in your main directory where java and res directory exists then paste your html file in assets folder and load it with your below code.

webView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/homeremedies.html");

This should work if the HTML file is placed under the assets folder

webView.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/filename.html");
