Changing HTML in a WebView programmatically

I'm loading an html asset page into a WebView using

webMain.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/record.html");

which works fine, but inside the html are a number of places where I'd like to use information from the app. For instance, the HTML may contain text that reads "[Custom]". Is there a way I can replace that word with information passed from the application?

android android-webview

Yes you can do that by loading your page in a String and then load that string in your WebView.

Eg:

String summary = "<html><body>You scored <b>192</b> points.</body></html>";
webview.loadData(summary, "text/html", null);
