I'm having a problem with my code when running on a Android 4.4.2 KitKat (API 19) emulator...

When I emulate my project on a Android 4.3 (API 18) emulator, it works normally and creates the mathematical expressions with MathJax:

But when I use a Android 4.4.2 emulator, the app don't work correctly:

Here is the code of my project:

}

When I press the "Example" or the "Show" button, LogCat emits the errors:

I got this problem too.

Here is my solution:

1. change your base URL from "http://test" to "http://test/"
2. change this code webView.loadUrl(..) to webView.evaluateJavascript(..);. Especially for code where we want to load innerHTML. Don't forget to add anotation @TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT) because it's only for Android 4.4 and above
3. never put webView.loadWithBaseUrl(..) in the same process with webView.loadUrl(..). Because If webView.loadUrl(..) was loaded before webView.loadWithBaseUrl(..) finished, it will raise error as OP stated above.

For number 3, your codes is already conform with this (because in your codes, webView.loadUrl(..) execution was already separated with webView.loadWithBaseUrl(..) by using OnClick event. So, don't pay attention to it.

But if your apps need to load them at one event, consider to separate them by using this code: `

private void initiateWebView(){

    webViewEquationDisplay.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
        @Override
        public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
            super.onPageFinished(view, url);

            if(Build.VERSION.SDK_INT >= Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT){
                loadUrlKitKat(equationSymbolFinal+equationToBeDisplayedFinal);
            }
            else{
                webViewEquationDisplay.loadUrl("javascript:document.getElementById('math').innerHTML='<font color=\"yellow\">`"+equationToBeDisplayedFinal+"`</font>';");
            }

            webViewEquationDisplay.loadUrl("javascript:MathJax.Hub.Queue(['Typeset',MathJax.Hub]);");
        }
    });

    final String mathJaxOfflineUrl = "file:///android_asset/MathJax/MathJax.js";            
    webViewEquationDisplay.loadDataWithBaseURL("http://bar/", "<script type='text/x-mathjax-config'>"
            +"MathJax.Hub.Config({ " 
                +"showMathMenu: false, "
                +"jax: ['input/AsciiMath','output/HTML-CSS'], "
                +"extensions: ['asciimath2jax.js'], " 
                +"AsciiMath: { fixphi: true, useMathMLspacing: true, displaystyle: false, decimalsign: \".\" }, "
              +"});</script>"
            +"<script type='text/javascript' "
              +"src='"+mathJaxOfflineUrl+"'"
              +"></script><span id='math'></span>","text/html","utf-8","");
}


@TargetApi(Build.VERSION_CODES.KITKAT)
private void loadUrlKitKat(String param){
    webViewEquationDisplay.evaluateJavascript("javascript:document.getElementById('math').innerHTML='<font color=\"#97FD97\">`"+param+"`</font>';",null);
}

`

good luck

I had the same problem when I moved different javascript functions out of the main page to an separate .js file. For some reason, Android can't find externally-loaded JavaScript webview functions from Java - only the ones in the main page. Once I moved the function back from the JS file, it immediately started working.

Try making a "proxy" function like this directly inside the main HTML:

function proxy() {
    call_some_other_function_from_JS_file();
}

This worked for me. I'm sure there must be a way to get find these functions, because I didn't have this problem on iOS. Someone please ment if you know a better way.

webview.evaluateJavascript("javascript:document.getElementById('math').innerHTML='"+doubleEscapeTeX(questn)+"';",null);

webview.loadUrl("javascript:MathJax.Hub.Queue(['Typeset',MathJax.Hub]);");

This is the sollution for api 19 or above
