Open URL with custom BROWSER

Good day!
Guys, I have a problem and want your help.
Through a WebView, how do I get when clicked by the user, do not open the options of standard browsers (eg chrome and internet). I saw an app by clicking the link to the page opens normally however, as if open in a custom browser. I found it very interesting, and I wonder how this mechanics.
If anyone know how to create an app that perform the same procedure I am grateful.
For better doubt the APP is this:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tachanfil.jornaisdobrasil&hl=pt-BR

You have to set up WebViewClient like
this.mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient(){
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url){
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
});
Then your app will display all links in your WebView instead of opening browser

Perhaps you are missing setting your client as the webview client - Refer to

Multiwindow Apps in Android

I am developing android application to use multiple window in same window.
I am including multiple layouts with multiple purpose. For example one part of window will have browser and one part has to display Facebook or twitter news feed, and one more to display current news which can be get from rss feed.
For the browser I am using WebView in which user can search some thing in browser.
But if I use webview to search something it is opened in android browser.
Is there anyway to display webpages with in Webview and if I search anything It should also be displayed with in web view?
Guide me in right way.

Try this solution .
WebView view =(WebView)findViewById(R.id.webView1);
view.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
view.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return false;
}
});
Thanks

Android webview url redirect

I have a webview in my application which upon launch displays an html page. The page has a hyperlink which on click is supposed to display a video.
When i run the application and click on the video hyperlink link , nothing happens. But if i load the same page in android browser, then it launches a default video player and everything works fine.
I debugged it furthers by putting a log statement in shouldOverrideUrlLoading method and noticed that, when the hyperlink is clicked it gets redirected to another link and then to another link (final video streaming url).
My question is : why would the link work perfectly in default android browser and not through a webview.
Thanks

What is happening is when you click the hyperlink, that link probably has some popups inside of it. You need to define the onCreateWindow function in your webview's WebChromeClient. This handles how calls to open new windows or popups are handled.
public boolean onCreateWindow (WebView view, boolean dialog, boolean userGesture, Message resultMsg) {
((WebView.WebViewTransport) resultMsg.obj).setWebView(myWebView);
resultMsg.sendToTarget();
return true;
}

After declaring your WebView you should set javascript enabled, then your WebView will work as a browser.
For example:
WebView mwebview = new WebView(this);
setContentView(mwebview);
mwebview.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
or
mwebview.getSettings().setPluginState(PluginState.ON); // this is for newer API's

Basically, do not expect your embedded WebView works the same as Android default Browser. The default Browser is built on the same WebView, but there are lots a customization. (Especially around the no-standard uri, HTML5 stuff)
I followed code from here: WebView and HTML5 <video>, and I put the video link to a video tag, and I got the Video playing in my own version of WebView. The behavior is a little different from the default Browser. Given more time, we could figure that out by looking at its code, but anyways ...

Keeping a webView contained in Android?

Hey everyone! Im pretty new to Android and I have a webView under 2 other widgets on the screen(Or w/e you call it). But when ever I navigate the webView, its changes to full screen and i cant see my other widgets. Ive looked all over Google but couldn't find anything, is there some way I can fix this?
Im using this code to navigate:
webView.loadUrl("http://www.example.com/");
Thank you.

webview.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url){
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
});
when you do webView.loadUrl("www.example.com") or if there is a redirection when a hyperlink is clicked or something similar, the android device browser is started. I believe you are stuck with this. Try pasting the above code before you call the webView.loadUrl("www.example.com")
What we are essentially doing is asking the webview to load the url, instead of opening it in the device browser.

How to display Web site in Android WebView

I am new to Android WebView, in my application i need to display a web site conatins 3 web pages. In the first web page there will be a link to navigate to the second page and second to third page. I given the URL in the WebView, the first page is displayed perfectly, when i click the link it directly opens the browser application to display the second page. But i want to display the second page in the WebView itself. Please find my code below:
WebView forumView=(WebView)findViewById(R.id.forumView);
forumView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
forumView.loadUrl("url");
As i said i am very new to WebView my code might be wrong, please help me to solve this problem.
Thanks in Advance,
Rajapandian

This piece of code will help you.
wbb = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webView_tobe_loaded);
WebSettings wbset=wbb.getSettings();
wbset.setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wbb.setWebViewClient(new MyWebViewClient());
String url="http://www.google.com";
System.out.println(getdeviceid());
wbb.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
wbb.loadUrl(url);

You'll have to intercept the clicks yourself if you don't want the default Android behavior.
You can monitor events in a WebView using a WebViewClient. The method you want is shouldOverrideUrlLoading(). This allows you to perform your own action when a particular URL is selected.
You set the WebViewClient of your WebView using the setWebViewClient() method.
If you look at the WebView sample in the SDK there's an example which does just what you want. It's as simple as:
private class HelloWebViewClient extends WebViewClient {
#Override
public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
view.loadUrl(url);
return true;
}
}
