title: WebView.setHttpAuthUsernamePassword() not working?
body: <p>I am developing part of an Android application that needs to use a WebView to open a password protected site. I am using SharedPreferences to provide the username and password from when the user logs in the app for the first time. I've tested the credentials it's returning, so I know that those are correct. When I run this in the emulator, the site says that I'm unauthorized (even though I am). Here's the code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>  setContentView(R.layout.browser);
    WebView browser = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.browser);
    browser.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    SharedPreferences credentials = getSharedPreferences("credentials", 0);
    browser.setHttpAuthUsernamePassword("example.com", "", credentials.getString("username", ""), credentials.getString("password", ""));
    browser.loadUrl("http://example.com");
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So does anyone know why this wouldn't be authenticating me? Should the realm string that I put "" for actually be something?</p>
