I have a WebView that is loading a page from the Internet. I want to show a ProgressBar until the loading is complete.

How do I listen for the completion of page loading of a WebView?

Answer

Extend WebViewClient and call onPageFinished() as follows:

mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {

   public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
        // do your stuff here
    }
});
