Searching for a text in a WebView is easy. Navigating to the first occurence of the searched text goes like this:
webView.findAllAsync(whatToFind);
webView.setFindListener((i, i1, b) -> {
if (b) {
webView.findNext(true);
}
});
How can I navigate to the NEXT occurence of the searched text?
I tried this but this will not navigate to the next occurence.
webView.findNext(true);
I loaded the webview in this way:
webView.loadDataWithBaseURL("", formatHtmlContent(content), "text/html", "UTF-8", "");
SOLUTION: Thanks to Du.Fantasy: Don't use the 'setFindListener' - unless you really need it. Take care of the timing when you use the findAllAsync.
It's enough to just call webView.findNext(true); But you need to be sure that calling webView.findAllAsync("string"); before when page is fully loaded. e.g. call it in onPageFinished or even delay a few seconds. I tested on Pixel 3 and it's working fine. I have recorded a video but I don't know how to post it here.
