Answer 1

Use the Delegate to Determine the Navigation Type!

My Snippet

- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType{


    if (navigationType == UIWebViewNavigationTypeLinkClicked){

        NSURL *url = request.URL;
        [self openExternalURL:url];//Handle External URL here

    }

    return YES;

}
