android webview displaying blank page

java android eclipse android-emulator webview

I have an android application that I am developing using the emulator running on android 2.3.3 with an embedded WebView in a framelayout nested in a linearlayout (vertical). No matter what code I use it never actually does anything. I have Permissions on the android application set to INTERNET. Even when trying to load just the HTML code. I get a blank white page, no errors no nothing. Nothing in logcat as well.

WebView wview = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView1);
wview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

I have tried all three of these to attempt to load anything into the webview:

wview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");
wview.loadData("<HTML><BODY><H3>Test</H3></BODY></HTML>","text/html","utf-8");
wview.loadDataWithBaseURL(null, "<HTML><BODY><H3>Test</H3></BODY></HTML>","text/html","utf-8",null);

All three give me the same results. Nothing.

Any ideas?
