How do I save the current URL state in Android WebView?

Question

In the browser that comes with Android, when you rotate the phone, the WebView is not reloaded. I was wondering how to do this. I can save the current URL of the Webview and pass it to the next version of myself, but how do I do that with the whole WebView?

I ended up just using onConfigurationChange and kept the same WebView. Thanks,

Don't forget to register for the configChange in your Manifest.

<activity android:name=".WebContent" android:configChanges="orientation">
