That is not a WebView. Probably that is the Browser activity.

Most likely, you have told the WebView to load some URL that issued a
redirect (e.g., http://www.google.com). Redirects, like clicks on
links, by default open up in the Browser, even if they originated in a
WebView.

You can use WebViewClient and shouldOverrideUrlLoading() to find out
about the redirect/click and load the page in the WebView itself.

2010-09-29 Thread dashman
after the setContentView, i do

 webview.loadUrl(url);

that seems to be creating an instance of the native browser.

i guess my question is - how do i set a url w/o forcing
the native browser from opening.

As I wrote previously:
