Answer 1

The WebViewClient is set by call setWebViewClient() method on you WebView refrence.

Firstly set all properties for webview then call loadURL(String url) method, It will open sublinks to same webview instead of open into browser.

ProgressDialog progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(WebActivity.this);
WebView webview= (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview);

webview.getSettings().setDomStorageEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
webview.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(false);
webview.getSettings().setJavaScriptCanOpenWindowsAutomatically(true);
webview.getSettings().setPluginsEnabled(true);
webview.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(true);
webview.getSettings().setSupportZoom(true);
webview.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(false);
webview.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(false);

webview.loadUrl("http://www.google.com");

webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        return false;
    }

    @Override
    public void onPageFinished(WebView view, String url) {
        super.onPageFinished(view, url);
        progressDialog.dismiss();
    }

    @Override
    public void onPageStarted(WebView view, String url,Bitmap favicon) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        super.onPageStarted(view, url, favicon);
        progressDialog.setMessage("Loading ...");
        progressDialog.setCancelable(false);
        progressDialog.setCanceledOnTouchOutside(false);
        progressDialog.show();
    }
});
