I've been trying to get a WebView to open in the user's default

Why not simply add "target=_'blank'" to your URLs? No WebView
hacking needed.
<a href="http://my.external.url"; title="What the user sees"
target="_blank"></a>
Sorry – you misunderstand. I meant a way to change the way WebView
handles opening windows to open them in the user's default browser.
Like I said, I have found a way to do this, but it involves a second
WebView which intercepts the message and passes it to the default
browser with [[NSWorkspace sharedWorkspace] openURL:[request URL]];
As such, it doesn't really matter if there is no other way to do
this, but a better method would be an improvement.
What about the WebFrameLoadDelegate (frameLoadDelegate) of your
WebView? You could intercept the click with
webView:didStartProvisionalLoadForFrame:, cancel the webview's
loading, and handle the URL yourself with NSWorkspace. I haven't
actually tried this, but it might be a more elegant solution.
Thanks,
