Answer 1

According to this link,It turns out that list item click events will never be received for list items with views that can either handle click events or can gain focus.

Answer 2

You need to set focusable and clickable to false, but it does not work if you set them to false in the xml like so:

 android:clickable="false"
 android:focusable="false"

instead you need to do it in code with a

myWebViewInAListView.setFocusable(false);
