This is a great article.
But I have a question.
If HTTP connection was disconnected while receiving the response via InputStream, could I detect this failour?
I tested it on emulator, but no any exception is occurred in this case.

Best Regards.
Ricos.

Can someone help me with this? To make the « Second Method : getting an input stream given a simple url from Android using HttpClient » able to send also an Array of strings to receive later in PHP instead of being limited to a BasicNamePair ?

Thank you…

Any help is REALLY WELCOME with this :/

File temp = File.createTempFile(« /sdcard/Sipdroid/mediaplayertmp », « dat »);

String tempPath = temp.getAbsolutePath();
FileOutputStream out = new FileOutputStream(temp);
byte buf[] = new byte[128];
do {
int numread = fis.read(buf);
if (numread <= 0)
break;
out.write(buf, 0, numread);
} while (true);

MediaPlayer mp = new MediaPlayer();
mp.setDataSource(tempPath);

Thanks but that is not a solution ;(.

I’ve tried that but it does nothing!(Like if that’s a large video file, .mp4). Link to an image just open an image, not to save. I want to save . I meant the webview in the app somehow does not handle the requests like in its real browser!

I’m on Droid 2.0.1.

Hello Philip !
To download a file to hte phone (sdcrad) you just have to create a link to that file (http:∕∕host.com∕file.zip for example), in a webview, and when the user will click on the link, android will ask the user where he wants to download it.

Let say I have a tabview which every tab I have pre-loaded an URL with webview. On the page of webview, I have a link to download a file. How can I implement this to download that file to the phone?

Appreciated it!

Has anyone figured out how to send xml as the payload in a POST? Nothing I do seems to work. I thin I need to encode the xml somehow but nothing has worked so far. Any ideas?

Hi again!

It is possible to change this code
try {
HttpClient httpclient = new DefaultHttpClient();
HttpPost httpPost = new HttpPost(url);
List nameValuePairs = new ArrayList(1);
//this is where you add your data to the post method
nameValuePairs.add(new BasicNameValuePair(
« name », « anthony »));
httpPost.setEntity(new UrlEncodedFormEntity(nameValuePairs));
// Execute HTTP Post Request
HttpResponse response = httpclient.execute(httpPost);
content = response.getEntity().getContent();
return content;
}
in order to send not pairs of values but a xml string?

Thanks for the help,
Best regards!

Hi Anthony!

Thanks for your help so far. It is necessary any additional network configuration in the Android emulator to send the request to the server?

Best regards!
