B4J Question href WebView

[MarcoRome]

Hi all.
I have this code:

Sub AppStart (Form1 As Form, Args() As String)
    MainForm = Form1
    MainForm.RootPane.LoadLayout("1") 'Load the layout file.
    MainForm.Show

    
    test = $"<a href="skype:echo123?call;">Call</a> the Skype Echo / Sound Test Service"$
    WebView1.LoadHtml(test)

      
End Sub

Sub WebView1_LocationChanged (Location As String)
    Log(Location)
    WebView1.LoadHtml(test)
End Sub

I see the html code loaded in the webview, but when I try to click on "Call" nothing happens.
Where i wrong ?
Thank you

I don't think this works in a webview. As I understand it, the 'skype' in the href will try to open a new window (which a normal browser can do, but a not a webview).

Hi @alwaysbusy . Thank you for your reply.

No, it does not open a second window in the browser. Opens the Skype application installed on the computer

hmm, in my browser it does open a new window (tab):

Waw, so weird that two browsers can act differently...
