Load html with javascript inside a webview

Question

I am trying to load an html file into a webview but the webview remains blank. Can someone please help me to achieve this ?

here is my html

<script src="http://france.meteofrance.com/portlet/plugins/meteo/VignetteMeteoVille3.javascript?idLieu=431200" charset="UTF-8"></script>

this is on create method

//oncreate method

protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    // TODO Auto-generated method stub

    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);

    setContentView(R.layout.rss_feed);

     webcontent = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.webViewHistoire);

     webcontent.setWebViewClient(new NewsClient());

     webcontent.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);

     webcontent.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled (true);

     webcontent.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);

     webcontent.loadUrl("file:///android_asset/home.html");


}

//back key

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {

    if ((keyCode == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK) && webcontent.canGoBack()) {

        webcontent.goBack();    

        return true;

    }

    return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);

}

private class NewsClient extends WebViewClient {

    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {

        return true;
    }
}

Is your html file code written in <html> tag ? if not then please write it as below:

<html> 
  <head>
 <script language="JavaScript"  src="http://france.meteofrance.com/portlet/plugins/meteo/VignetteMeteoVille3.javascript?idLieu=431200" charset="UTF-8">
