WebHelp Mobile Search function not working in Android 4.0.3

Post by ShellyW »

Hello,

I'm working with one of our developers to embed a webhelp mobile output into our new Android app. The search function kept returning an error message, and when the developer ran a diagnostic on the Flare output files, he got the message "Cross origin requests are only supported for HTTP." even though the files are completely local.

He was able to get around the issue in Jellybean 4.1 and above by adding the command:

WebView class

webView.getSettings().setAllowFileAccess( true );

however, the In 4.0.3 the method is not supported below API 16.

Has anyone run into a similar problem or have any suggestions for a fix?

Cheers,
Shelly
