Answer 1

Add this 2 lines in your code -

mWebView.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient()); 

mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());

Answer 2

Usually, the default web browser opens and loads the destination URL. However, you open your links on your WebView by adding these lines.

mWebView = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.Insomniax_WebView);
mWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
