无法执行ACTION_WEB_SEARCH

Question

In my application I do

    Uri webAddress = Uri.parse("http://www.nrk.no");
    Intent webIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_WEB_SEARCH, webAddress);

    String title = "Choose an app";
    Intent chooserIntent = Intent.createChooser(webIntent, title);

    startActivity(chooserIntent);

But the chooser that pops open says that No apps can perform this action . What am I doing wrong?

EDIT: Changing to ACTION_VIEW made it work, why?

Answer 1

I haven't used ACTION_WEB_SEARCH but it looks like the difference is what action it actually takes. You aren't providing a query to search for so the appropriate action would be ACTION_VIEW .

Take a look here in the docs . You could provide a query in the Intent.EXTRAS and see if that allows you to use ACTION_WEB_SEARCH
