Hi PorcheFan, I managed to figure this out from a post here - http://down911.blogspot.com/2009/01/android-developers-re-webview-html-form.html, about another problem.
Anyway, the solution is a bit of a roundabout way of getting this behaviour, but it works for me. What you want to do is create a new class in your project that extends android.webkit.WebViewClient. Give it a constructor that just calls super(), and override the "shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)" function. In this function, just "return false". Then, when you create your WebView, you'll also need to create an instance of your customisez WebViewClient, and call webView.setWebViewClient(myWebViewClientInstance). That should sort it! Please let me know if this helped or not. Thanks.
