I too am interested. look forward to the solution.

So far to remove the white space, I have created an image to the largest screen size (EVO) and made the primary objects in the image display in the center within a 480x320 area. Of course this creates another problem:

My image (webpage) now opens in the webview aligned to top left instead of centered!

If I find the solution, i will post it here too.

I have solved this issue after two days of research; trial & error!

1st, understand that the primary reason for the white space is usually the template or web page width is not equal to image width. For example, I had and image with a 800px width, but the template was 854px wide. Once I matched them I still wasn't out of the woods.

Basically your html meta tag "viewport" is very important!

I underestimated its importance.

Next you have to lock in your landscape or vertical for the activity in your source java file:
setRequestedOrientation(ActivityInfo.SCREEN_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE);

Swap LANDSCAPE for PORTRAIT for vertical.

The following are also important:

engine1.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
engine1.setInitialScale(1);

This should get you where you need to go. Hope it helps!
