Force open a new tab in mobile browser from an app

I have an app that has a webview in xamarin and shows a web which has links that are configured in this way:
<a target="_blank" href="http://www.web.com"> http://www.web.com </a>
but they do not work, I suppose this happens because when viewing the web from an app, it is not able to open the link in a new window.
I have also tried window.open without any changes.
How I could configure the link to force open the browser with a new link window.
Thanks.

I think this should happen on Android，if you want to open a new window with browser,you could use SetWebChromeClient method for your WebView in your custom renderer.
create a custom renderer in android project:
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(WebView), typeof(AndroidWebView))]
namespace your namespace
{
class AndroidWebView:WebViewRenderer
{
public AndroidWebView(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<WebView> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
Control.SetWebChromeClient(new MywebviewChrome());
}
private class MywebviewChrome : Android.Webkit.WebChromeClient
{
public override bool OnCreateWindow(Android.Webkit.WebView view, bool isDialog, bool isUserGesture, Message resultMsg)
{
Android.Webkit.WebView.HitTestResult result = view.GetHitTestResult();
string data = result.Extra;
Context context = view.Context;
Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ActionView,Android.Net.Uri.Parse(data));
context.StartActivity(browserIntent);
return false;
}
}
}
}
in your forms project xaml :
<WebView HeightRequest="800" WidthRequest="600" x:Name="webview" ></WebView>
in your page.xaml.cs:
var htmlSource = new HtmlWebViewSource();
htmlSource.Html = #"<a target='_blank' href='http://www.web.com'> http://www.web.com </a>";
webview.Source = htmlSource;

As you supposed, Xamarin.Forms doesn't support opening new tabs / windows.
BUT the Webview component has an event handler called "Navigating" on which you can subscribe to execute code every time the webview tries to open a new page.
public void NavigatingEventHandler(object sender, WebNavigatingEventArgs args)
{
if (args.Url.StartsWith("https://"))
{
//If you want to open the new window in the OS browser
Device.OpenUri(new Uri(args.Url));
//If you want to open the new window inside the webview
webview.Source = args.Url;
args.Cancel = true;
}
}
XAML:
<WebView x:Name="webview" Navigating="NavigatingEventHandler" />

SWT Browser not displaying pages using D3

I would like to display a html page that uses D3 in an SWT Browser.
If I load a URL like www.google.com it loads correctly and allows me to search etc. If I try loading a page that contains D3 I find that nothing gets displayed and no errors are output.
Example
public class D3BrowserExample {
public static void main(String args[]) {
Display display = new Display();
final Shell shell = new Shell(display, SWT.SHELL_TRIM);
shell.setLayout(new FillLayout());
Browser browser = new Browser(shell, SWT.NONE);
browser.addTitleListener(new TitleListener() {
#Override
public void changed(TitleEvent event) {
shell.setText(event.title);
}
});
browser.setBounds(0, 0, 1200, 900);
shell.pack();
shell.open();
browser.setJavascriptEnabled(true);
browser.setUrl("https://observablehq.com/#d3/force-directed-graph");
browser.addProgressListener(new ProgressListener() {
#Override
public void completed(ProgressEvent event) {
System.out.println("Page loaded");
}
#Override
public void changed(ProgressEvent event) {
}
});
while (!shell.isDisposed()) {
if (!display.readAndDispatch()) {
display.sleep();
}
}
}
}
Is it possible to execute D3 using an SWT Browser? Also how can I get the Javascript output to debug the issue?
Update
I've tried this on another Windows 10 PC with version 4.3 of SWT. The complete method is called for the progress listener but nothing displays.

Multiple Unity Scene Script for iOS Build

Two Scenes in Unity. Have to write a script for controlling unity scenes(2) in native iOS app, suppose 2 buttons in a native app when I click 1st button have to show scene1 and the 2nd button for scene2 like so. I found a script for android but need to write it for iOS.
Attached Script for Android,
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
using UnityEngine.VR;
using System;
public class AnimatorScript : MonoBehaviour
{
public Animator animation;
AndroidJavaObject intent , currentActivity , extras;
bool hasExtra;
string arguments;
// Use this for initialization
void Start ()
{
try
{
AndroidJavaClass UnityPlayer = new AndroidJavaClass("com.unity3d.player.UnityPlayer");
AndroidJavaObject currentActivity = UnityPlayer.GetStatic<AndroidJavaObject>("currentActivity");
intent = currentActivity.Call<AndroidJavaObject>("getIntent");
hasExtra = intent.Call<bool> ("hasExtra", "test_val");
Debug.Log(hasExtra);
Debug.Log("start");
}
catch(Exception e)
{
Debug.Log(e);
}
}
public void loadScene(string sceneName)
{
SceneManager.LoadScene(sceneName);
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update ()
{
if (hasExtra)
{
Debug.Log("has extra");
extras = intent.Call<AndroidJavaObject>("getExtras");
arguments = extras.Call<string> ("getString", "test_val");
if(string.Equals(arguments,"scene1"))
{
animation.Play("dancing_warrior_sun-001");
}
if(string.Equals(arguments,"scene2"))
{
// animation.Play("seating_poses-001");
SceneManager.LoadScene(1);
}
else Debug.Log("No Animation Found");
Debug.Log(arguments);
}
else
{
Debug.Log("no extra");
}
}
}

There are two ways of Scene change/switch you can do,
1) In Unity place button by UI, and write script for scene change as follows,
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
public class MenuActions : MonoBehaviour {
public void MENU_ACTION_NextButton(string sceneName)
{
Application.LoadLevel(sceneName);
}
}
Drag this script to Main camera and click button, at the bottom of inspector click to add this main camera and name your scene name that have to be changed.Do this for scene 2 with same script and name the scene as well.
2) If you have button in your native app then write scripts as follows and try to write script for void update as well,
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using System.Runtime.InteropServices;
using UnityEngine.SceneManagement;
public class SceneChanger : MonoBehaviour {
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
}
// Update is called once per frame
void Update () {
//SceneManager.LoadScene(scene);
// try your script................
}
public void ChangeScene( string scene ) {
// Application.LoadLevel(scene);
SceneManager.LoadScene(scene);
}
}
Hope this will give you the concept..

Building an application with a native plugin for iOS
You can follow the official document, use UnitySendMessage from iOS to call the scene-control script at Unity.

Awesomium .NET. Wpf. TitleChanged event

I have a very basic application, that shows website content within the WPF app. Everything works fine, except TitleChangedEvent. Here is the code sample (XAML):
<Window xmlns:awe="http://schemas.awesomium.com/winfx" x:Class="ShopChat.Desktop.MainWindow"
xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation"
xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml"
xmlns:webControls="clr-namespace:System.Web.UI.WebControls;assembly=System.Web"
Title="{Binding ElementName=WebControl, Path=Title}" MinHeight="480" MinWidth="640">
<Grid>
<awe:WebControl x:Name="WebControl"/>
</Grid>
And this is main window code-behind:
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
string url = #"http://shopchat.dev";
try
{
url = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get("Url");
}
catch (Exception)
{
}
WebControl.Source = new Uri(url);
WebControl.TitleChanged += WebControl_OnTitleChanged;
this.WindowTitle = "Quickchat";
}
public string WindowTitle
{
get { return (string)GetValue(WindowTitleProperty); }
set { SetValue(WindowTitleProperty, value); }
}
// Using a DependencyProperty as the backing store for WindowTitle. This enables animation, styling, binding, etc...
public static readonly DependencyProperty WindowTitleProperty =
DependencyProperty.Register("WindowTitle", typeof(string), typeof(MainWindow), new PropertyMetadata(null));
private void WebControl_OnTitleChanged(object sender, TitleChangedEventArgs e)
{
this.WindowTitle = e.Title;
}
I've also tried to bind to window title directly using Binding ElementName=WebControl. That didn't help me either.
JavaScript client code is very simple: it changes the document title on timer (setInterval).
What am I doing wrong?

try like this code
public MainWindow()
{
InitializeComponent();
DataContext = this;
MyTitle = "Title";
}
Then you just need in the XAML
Title="{Binding MyTitle}"
Then you don't need the dependency property.
Then I would like to use this INotifyPropertyChanged with a standard property.

The issue was solved. TitleChanged event seemed to be insufficient. I've incorporated the usage of global js object to get the necessary behavior.

How to catch element click by ID in Android webview?

I have the viewPager component which is containing the several webviews with HTML content from remote server.
Is it simple HTML code without possibility to change the HTMl output on the server side.
I would like to ask, how can i catch the click(tap) event on the specified element with the given ID in Android?
ViewPager
private void initViewPager() {
pager = (ViewPager) findViewById(R.id.my_pager);
adapter = new FragmentStatePagerAdapter(
getSupportFragmentManager()
) {
#Override
public int getCount() {
// This makes sure getItem doesn't use a position
// that is out of bounds of our array of URLs
Logger.d(String.valueOf(mWelcomeController.loadedPagesToDisplay.size()));
return mWelcomeController.loadedPagesToDisplay.size();
}
#Override
public android.support.v4.app.Fragment getItem(int position) {
Logger.d(mWelcomeController.loadedPagesToDisplay.toString());
return BrowserFragment.newInstance(
mWelcomeController.loadedPagesToDisplay.get(position)
);
}
};
//Let the pager know which adapter it is supposed to use
pager.setAdapter(adapter);
}
Because I cannot modify the HTML output on the server side (maybe inject some attributes into DOM on device ?) I cannot use something like that:
http://www.scriptscoop.com/t/21b53b896c9e/javascript-how-to-detect-button-click-in-webview-android.html
Detect click on HTML button through javascript in Android WebView.
I would like just something like this:
Find the given element in the HTML code
Update the HTML code (add
onclick event)
Catch this event in native code

For that you need to parse the html, a good html parser for Java (and therefor also Android) is Jsoup.
You can do something like:
// Connect to the web site
Document doc = Jsoup.connect(url).get();
Element button = doc.select("#buttonid");
button.html("new stuff here");
//parse back and put in webview
String finaloutput = doc.html();

1.
// setting
wv.addJavascriptInterface(new MyJsToAndroid(),"my");
WebSettings settings = wv.getSettings();
settings.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
2.
// JsCallBack
class MyJsToAndroid extends Object{
#JavascriptInterface
public void myClick(String idOrClass) {
Log.d(TAG, "myClick-> " + idOrClass);
}
}
3.
// JS--
public static String addMyClickCallBackJs() {
String js = "javascript:";
js += "function myClick(event){" +
"if(event.target.className == null){my.myClick(event.target.id)}" +
"else{my.myClick(event.target.className)}}";
js += "document.addEventListener(\"click\",myClick,true);";
return js;
}
4.
#Override
public void onPageFinished(WebView wv, String url) {
//...
wv.evaluateJavascript(addMyClickCallBackJs(),null);
//...
}
So, look at the 2 log.
