Question

Is it possible to use html5, css and javascript to open an android application?
I searched online but none of the answers I found so far where usefull for me.

edit: I used phonegap to create the apk and installed it on my phone.

If you want to create android applications with html, js, css you should use:

1. http://phonegap.com/
2. http://cordova.apache.org/

You probably need a Java-JavaScript bridge. Take a look at this page: http://developer.android.com/guide/webapps/webview.html
