Android. WebView and loadData

myWebView.loadData(myHtmlString, "text/html; charset=UTF-8", null);

This works flawlessly, especially on Android 4.0, which apparently ignores character encoding inside HTML.

Tested on 2.3 and 4.0.3.

In fact, I have no idea about what other values besides “base64” does the last parameter take. Some Google examples put null in there.
