Android WebView links to same window with target=_blank to open new window
First,
mWebView.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(true);
Then in WebChromeClient
, override OnCreateWindow()
private class MyWebChromeclient extends WebChromeClient {
@Override
public boolean onCreateWindow(WebView view, boolean isDialog,
boolean isUserGesture, Message resultMsg) {
WebView newWebView = new WebView(WebViewActivity2.this);
view.addView(newWebView);
WebView.WebViewTransport transport = (WebView.WebViewTransport) resultMsg.obj;
transport.setWebView(newWebView);
resultMsg.sendToTarget();
newWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
@Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW);
browserIntent.setData(Uri.parse(url));
startActivity(browserIntent);
return true;
}
});
return true;
}
Try this.
myWebView.getSettings().setSupportMultipleWindows(true);
myWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient() {
@Override
public boolean onCreateWindow(WebView view, boolean dialog, boolean userGesture, android.os.Message resultMsg)
{
WebView.HitTestResult result = view.getHitTestResult();
String data = result.getExtra();
Context context = view.getContext();
Intent browserIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, Uri.parse(data));
context.startActivity(browserIntent);
return false;
}
});
