Browser vs Webview / email phone contact

[devjet]

Clicking on a website stored on a server with a HTML Tag using the build in web browser

mailto:myEmailAddress
or
tel:022 555 2345
will show all available email tools installed on the Mobile or enter tel number ready to dial.

I have a locally stored webpage with email contacts and Phone numbers does anyone have a sample on how to achieve same function using webView ?

This is how the html is started

Sub btnAddress_Click
   MyUrl = ("file:///android_asset/Address.html")
   StartActivity (actMyAddress)
End Sub

You can use the OverrideUrl event to catch the link. You will then need to find the protocol (tel or mailto) and start the action yourself.
