I tried this approach and it worked out fine.
I followed step 3 and
I used WebViewClient implemented my own
shouldOverrideUrlLoading()
>From within this method
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
Intent i = new Intent( Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url) );
i.addFlags( Intent.FLAG_ACTIVITY_NEW_TASK );
try
{
view.getContext().startActivity( i );
}
catch (Exception e)
{
Log.e("Problem", e.getMessage());
}
return true;
}
This enabled me to get clicks and also handoff the URL to a different
WebView.
If you see issues with this approach, pls let me know.
Thank you.
