Maybe not exactly, I remember there are some interfaces like
enable/disable scroll bar in WebView.java. Is that OK for you?

ya it will be. my requirement is i want to display a large html file in
number of pages such that each page would fit exactly into a single screen.
I will place a button so that when clicked it would show the next page.

You mean you have a large HTML. But you want to show content in a
single screen. For user, it seems there are several pages. User only
needs to click your button to change page. Right?

I think this kind of work should be done by javascript. Or you can
split your content yourself and put one-screen content into WebView.

No. suppose i have 500 lines in a html file( which is too large, so
the scroll bar appears). I want to display the first 100 lines( which fits
exactly in the screen so scroll bar doesn't appear) in first screen then
user clicks a button and next 100 lines appear and so on until the end of
html file.

To be more simple its just like a e-book reader. Where each chapter
will be divided in to pages and each page exactly fits in to the screen, so
no scroll bar.

Finally I even tried to split the text but i couldn't find a way how
to do it. i want the text to split dynamically( so that it fits to various
screen sizes ) . Any solution for splitting ?

Thanks in advance.

horizontalScrollBarEnabled)
and public void setVerticalScrollBarEnabled (boolean
verticalScrollBarEnabled)

But they don't seem to work for webview. the scroll bar still remains.
