WebView scrolling issue in android?

Question

I have tried many options but my webview does not scrolls vertically as it scrolls fine horizontally. I have added webview in my android app to show some web content in the app. The content is just text. But it is more than the height of the webview so I want to provide the facility to the user to scroll it to watch the next page content. But webview doesnt scrolls horizontally.

Here is the xml and I am juss loading the html string in it.

<WebView 
        android:id="@+id/webview"
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="200dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="10dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="10dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="10dp"
        />

Please help me out and provide the best solution. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

How long is the file to be displayed? If it just contains Text, what is the probability that the text got wrapped and hence, fitted properly width wise. So, it didn't need any vertical scrolling at all!
