android : Open pop-up window in my webview

Add this line to your web view web.addJavascriptInterface(new Jscalls(this), "Android");

Then add this line to your href in html that is loaded in the web view href="javascript:showAndroidToast('Data to be shown or the URL from which data is to be shown')"

   public class Jscalls {
    Context mContext;

    Jscalls(Context c) {
        mContext = c;
    }

    /** Show a toast from the web page */ 
    @JavascriptInterface
            public void showToast(final String toast) {
                // Toast.makeText(mContext, toast, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
                if (NetworkConnection.isConnected(mContext)) {
                    ((Activity)mContext).runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
                        public void run() {
                            dialog = new Dialog(mContext);
                            dialog.setTitle("Title");

                            dialog.setContentView(R.layout.dialog);
                            dialog.setCancelable(true);
                            // there are a lot of settings, for dialog, check them all out!
                            // set up text

                            WebView web = (WebView) dialog.findViewById(R.id.webVie);
                            web.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

                            web.setWebViewClient(new HelloWebViewClient());
                            web.setOnLongClickListener(new OnLongClickListener() {

                @Override
                public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
                    view.loadUrl(url);
                    return true;

            Dialog dialog;
        }

I am answering my own question after 3 long years:

When a link is touched inside a webpage then depending on a webpage implementation there are two possible scenarios: 1) Link will be opened in same window. 2) Link will be opened in new window.

Well Its easy to handle 1st scenario using below code:

    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        view.loadUrl(url);
        return true;
    }

Overiding shouldOverrideUrlLoading inside WebViewClient implementation will open link in same window.

Now lets look at the 2nd case, where webpage is requesting a url to be open in new window. For this case we need to tell our webview to support multiple windows like below:

webView.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(true);

and then adding a new web chrome client to webview to get event when new window is requested by webpage

webView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {


        @Override
        public boolean onCreateWindow(WebView view, boolean isDialog,
                boolean isUserGesture, Message resultMsg) {



                WebView newWebView = new WebView(WebpageActivity.this);
                newWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
                newWebView.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
                newWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
                newWebView.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON);
                newWebView.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(true);
                view.addView(newWebView);
                WebView.WebViewTransport transport = (WebView.WebViewTransport) resultMsg.obj;
                transport.setWebView(newWebView);
                resultMsg.sendToTarget();

                newWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
                    @Override
                    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
                        view.loadUrl(url);
                        return true;
                    }
                });

                return true;
            }
        }

    });

Cheers!!!
