HTML code:

<!DOCTYPE html>
    <html>
        <head>
            <script src="resource://jquery.min.js"></script>
        </head>
        <body>
        </body>
    </html>

I want to intercept the protocol(resource://) and manual load Javascript into the webview. So I can store third party libs in android assets.

I tried override onLoadResource of WebViewClient and then use webView.loadData(data, mimeType, encoding); But it didn't work because the app went into a endless loop.
