Block a URL in a WebView on Android

Question

I want to block a link from loading within a Webview.

Code

public class WebMy extends Activity {


   
    private WebView mWebview;

         


        

Answer 1

this will cause nothing to happen when the link "http://www.myweb.com/pepito" is clicked

public class MyWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
    public boolean shuldOverrideKeyEvent (WebView view, KeyEvent event) {
         // Do something with the event here
         return true;
    }

    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading (WebView view, String url) {
        return url.equals("http://www.myweb.com/pepito");
    }
}
