Found the solution here:

function openInWebView(url)
{
    var anchor = document.createElement('a');
    anchor.setAttribute('href', url);

    var dispatch = document.createEvent('HTMLEvents')
    dispatch.initEvent('click', true, true);

    anchor.dispatchEvent(dispatch);
}

Then call the function like this in your app:

openInWebView('http://google.com')
