Description

Hay,

i'm having a xamp server on a machine with a self signed certificate. I need to login to the website but because of the ssl the website is white.

` @override void initState() { super.initState(); final flutterWebviewPlugin = new FlutterWebviewPlugin(); flutterWebviewPlugin.onHttpError.skip(1000); flutterWebviewPlugin.launch("https url to website", hidden: true, allowFileURLs: true, appCacheEnabled: true,withJavascript: true, withLocalStorage: true, withZoom: true);

flutterWebviewPlugin.onHttpError.skip(1000);

    flutterWebviewPlugin.onStateChanged((state) async){
    flutterWebviewPlugin.evalJavascript("document.getElementById(\"name\").innerText = \"username\"");
    flutterWebviewPlugin.evalJavascript("document.getElementById(\"password\").innerText = \"pw\"");
    flutterWebviewPlugin.evalJavascript("document.getElementById(\"loginbutton\").invokeMember(\"click\")");
    var test = flutterWebviewPlugin.evalJavascript("document.getElementById(\"errorbox\").innerText");
     }; 


flutterWebviewPlugin.dispose();
flutterWebviewPlugin.close();

} `

Is there a way to catch up the ssl error "Failed to validate the certificate chain, error: java.security.cert.CertPathValidatorException: Trust anchor for certification path not found." and ignore it?

Research direction
Review the existing comments (21 as of now) for any suggested workarounds or patches. The main challenge is allowing users to bypass SSL certificate validation in the Android WebView by overriding `onReceivedSslError`. Check if any pull request has been submitted or if the maintainers have indicated desired approach. The solution would involve adding an option to ignore SSL errors, possibly through a plugin method or configuration.
