when i click on google button it opens google website in the webview as you see it is not opening google website on full screen

This is because probably you are using same Activity with same XML layout, where are another widgets . But solution is not difficult.

1. First create something like web.xml with one widget WebView .

2. Then create another class extending from Activity called for example WebBrowser.java

3. Add it to your Manifest.xml as <activity android:name=".WebBrowser"></activity>

4. In your WebBrowser class will set your layout with setContentView(R.layout.web) and initialize your WebView .

5. After clicking on Google Button create new Intent and start new Activity .

Intent i = new Intent(this, WebBrowser.class);
startActivity(i);

your web.xml can looks like

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="fill_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical"
    >

    <WebView
        android:layout_width="fill_parent"
        android:layout_height="fill_parent"
        />

</LinearLayout>

Note: For support of full screen you can use

requestWindowFeature(Window.FEATURE_NO_TITLE);
getWindow().addFlags(WindowManager.LayoutParams.FLAG_FULLSCREEN);
