How to display HTML document in JavaFX WebView

Question

I have created a webview and I am trying to load an html document from my local machine, located in the project src folder. But when I try and load it nothing happens, I also tried loading it as content. Any ideas on why this is and how to fix it.

    final WebView wv = new WebView();
    final WebEngine we = wv.getEngine();
    we.load("test.html");

Answer 1

Do it like this

 File f = new File("C:\\Users\\User_Name\\Desktop\\test.html");
    try {
        webView.getEngine().load(f.toURI().toURL().toString());
    } catch (MalformedURLException ex) {
        Logger.getLogger(TestWeb.class.getName()).log(Level.SEVERE, null, ex);
    }
