I have a textview as like the following:
txtByRegistering.setText("By Registering you agree to terms and condition and privacy policy");
It is just a big text. So, I used marquee to scroll the text horizontally. that works fine. My Question is, How to invoke the click event while clicking the selected scrolling text .
Say for ex :
"Terms"
, I have to
invoke another new Intent (An Activity with webview as Terms has URL Link
).As the word "Registering" and "Terms" are Web URLs, I tried something like below :
String mRegDesc = "By registering you agree to the " + "<a href=\""
+ Constant.URL + "/terms_and_conditions"
+ "\">Terms of Use</a> " + "and " + "<a href=\"" + Constant.URL
+ "/privacy" + "\">Privacy Policy</a> ";
txtByRegistering.setText(Html.fromHtml(mRegDesc));
txtByRegistering.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
txtByRegistering.setSelected(true);
txtByRegistering.setTypeface(mTyFaceOverLockReg, Typeface.BOLD);
The above code works fine and it brings me to the browser when i click the word "Terms" But i wish to go to new Activity.
Finally,
I found the solution for that,
Here is the solution :
SpannableString SpanString = new SpannableString(
"By Registering you agree to the Terms of Use and Privacy Policy");
ClickableSpan teremsAndCondition = new ClickableSpan() {
@Override
public void onClick(View textView) {
Intent mIntent = new Intent(SignUp.this, CommonWebView.class);
mIntent.putExtra("isTermsAndCondition", true);
startActivity(mIntent);
}
};
// Character starting from 32 - 45 is Terms and condition.
// Character starting from 49 - 63 is privacy policy.
ClickableSpan privacy = new ClickableSpan() {
@Override
public void onClick(View textView) {
Intent mIntent = new Intent(SignUp.this, CommonWebView.class);
mIntent.putExtra("isPrivacyPolicy", true);
startActivity(mIntent);
}
};
SpanString.setSpan(teremsAndCondition, 32, 45, 0);
SpanString.setSpan(privacy, 49, 63, 0);
SpanString.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.BLUE), 32, 45, 0);
SpanString.setSpan(new ForegroundColorSpan(Color.BLUE), 49, 63, 0);
SpanString.setSpan(new UnderlineSpan(), 32, 45, 0);
SpanString.setSpan(new UnderlineSpan(), 49, 63, 0);
txtByRegistering.setMovementMethod(LinkMovementMethod.getInstance());
txtByRegistering.setText(SpanString, BufferType.SPANNABLE);
txtByRegistering.setSelected(true);
