Like Mark Murphy guessed, I set the WebViewClient and put some code in
shouldOverrideUrlLoading() to do this.
I created a method called setWebViewClient(WebView view) which creates
an anonymous class for the WebViewClient that starts out like this...
---------------------------------------
private void setWebViewClient(final WebView view) {
view.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(final WebView
view, final String url) {
.
.
.
-----------------------------------------------
Inside the shouldOverrideUrlLoading() method I have code like the
following
if (url.startsWith("mailto:";) || url.startsWith("geo:") ||
url.startsWith("tel:")
|| url.startsWith("http://";) ||
url.startsWith("https://";)) {
Intent intent = new Intent
(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(intent);
}
This causes the Activity that is registered to handle each protocol
type to automatically respond and load up.
