FTP image display in Android WebView
<p>Hey I'm struggling to get a tiff image downloaded from an <strong>FTP</strong> site to display in a <code>WebView</code>. After entering in the url in the format             imageView.loadUrl("<a href="ftp://username:password@ftpsite/path" rel="nofollow">ftp://username:password@ftpsite/path</a>");</p>

<p>(and the url is able to successfully download an image in ie or chrome) </p>

<p>I get an error message saying <strong>net::ERROR_UNKNOWN_URL_SCHEME</strong>. Does <strong>FTP</strong> not work in <code>WebView</code>? What else could the problem be?</p>

<p>(I later tried just downloading from the ftp site to the app but the image is <code>.tiff</code> and that opened up a whole new can of worms so I'm back to trying to use <code>WebView</code> instead of <code>ImageView</code>)</p>

<p>Edit: updated url with the path I actually use, I sloppily typed it in before :/</p>
