            View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_main, container, false);
            //TextView textView = (TextView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.section_label);
            //textView.setText(Integer.toString(getArguments().getInt(ARG_SECTION_NUMBER)));
            WebView content = (WebView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.webview);
            content.setBackgroundColor(0x00000000);
            content.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
            content.addJavascriptInterface(new WebAppInterface(this), "Android"); //Gives error: android.content.Context cannot be applied to com.example.app.MainActivity.PlaceHolderfragment :/
            if(getArguments().getInt(ARG_SECTION_NUMBER) == 1) {
                content.loadUrl("http://www.checkbestsellers.com/app/v1/");
            }
            return rootView;
        }

        @Override
        public void onAttach(Activity activity) {
            super.onAttach(activity);
            ((MainActivity) activity).onSectionAttached(
                    getArguments().getInt(ARG_SECTION_NUMBER));
        }

    }

}

WebAppInterface.class:

package com.example.app;

import android.app.ActionBar;
import android.content.Context;
import android.webkit.JavascriptInterface;
import android.widget.Toast;
import android.app.Activity;


public class WebAppInterface extends Activity {
    Context mContext;

    /** Instantiate the interface and set the context */
    WebAppInterface(Context c) {
        mContext = c;
    }

    /** Show a toast from the web page */
    @JavascriptInterface
    public void showToast(String toast) {
        Toast.makeText(mContext, toast, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    }
    @JavascriptInterface
    public void toggleActionbar(int toggle) {
        ActionBar ActionBar = getActionBar();
        if(toggle == 0){
            ActionBar.hide();
        } else {
            ActionBar.show();
        }
    }
}

What am I doing wrong? See line at MainActivity.class: content.addJavascriptInterface(new WebAppInterface(this), "Android"); //Gives error: android.content.Context cannot be applied to com.example.app.MainActivity.PlaceHolderfragment :/

 

This problem only occurs when using a dynamic fragment layout, when I just put a webview in the mainactivity and apply the code to that it works :/

 

And It uses the Navigationdrawer fragment layout from androidstudio.

 

Thanks for any help, I'm new to android stuff ^^

 

*Ignore some unneccessary imports, I'll look into that when I get this working first

I changed:

content.addJavascriptInterface(new WebAppInterface(this), "Android");

to:

content.addJavascriptInterface(new WebAppInterface(getActivity()), "Android");

    • Seem like they are seeking for a one size fits all. You have power users and "what's a computer" generation growing up on phones, tablets, and Chromebooks.
    • Guessing it was profitable enough inserting prompted apps vs the hate it generated.

    • Microsoft reportedly planning to lay off thousands of employees, mostly in sales by Usama Jawad Back in May 2025, Microsoft decided to lay off 3% of its workforce, which amounted to roughly 6,000 employees. It claimed that this decision allowed it to implement better organizational changes in a "dynamic marketplace". Now, a new report claims that the Redmond tech firm is planning to lay off thousands more next month. Citing unnamed sources, Bloomberg reports that as the company continues investing heavily in its AI ventures, it is about to announce layoffs of thousands of workers as early as next month. This reduction in workforce will primarily affect sales teams, but they won't be the only ones affected. That said, the sources did mention that the timing for this announcement may change. This move, if true, won't be entirely surprising. In April 2025, Microsoft announced that it will be relying more on third-party firms to sell its software to small- and medium-sized customers. It's currently unclear how many employees will be impacted by this change, but even if the layoff percentage is in the single digits, it would still be significant as it would be impacting the professional careers of thousands. The May 2025 layoffs primarily impacted engineering and product teams. The other major round of layoffs prior to this was the decision to eliminate 10,000 jobs back in January 2023. Those represented 5% of the total workforce at that time, with numerous teams, including the one leading Mixed Reality (MR) efforts, being heavily impacted. It is interesting to note that if the timing of the announcement for layoffs is accurate, it would be soon after Microsoft closes its fiscal year at the end of June 2025. Although we'll get financial reports for the latest quarter soon after too, one has to wonder what the human cost of profit is, as Microsoft continues to report billions of dollars in revenue every quarter.
