External links not working with Android webview

[SyedWasiHaider]

Hello,

I am currently putting a web app (written in Aurajs) inside an Android webview. Unfortunately, I am not in control of the web app as it is loaded by an external website. The issue is that I am unable to click on external links. The authors have decided to do someting like this for their tags:

< a href="javascript;void(0)" class="some-random-class" data-aura-rendered-by="blabla">
www.google.com
</ a >

The only way I can solve this is by removing any click listeners from this element and attaching my own. Unfortunately, if I do this currently, the listeners already attached will somehow take precedence. Please help.

Thanks

No longer need a solution. Ended up using a really ugly javascript call back hack to get it to work. For those interested:

I used the addJavascriptInterface method for Android webviews and then it called the method inside my javascript interface when the user clicked on the linked. SOO I literally had to do:

var this_is_silly = function() { window.myinterface.dostuff(); }
myelement.addEventListener("touch", this_is_silly };

where myinterface is the class type I use above in addJavascriptInterface.
