Trying to implement WebviewClient but failing

I saw several articles here about implementing the WebviewClient so that the transitions in the webview stay in webview rather than go to the browser.

When I try to run my application the webview loads but it still doesn't correct the page transition problem. Is it possible that I need to replace the "shouldoveride" with the "On Create"?

Here is my code:

public class WebViewActivity extends Activity {
/** Called when the activity is first created. */
@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.main);

    WebView wv = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview1);

    WebSettings webSettings = wv.getSettings();
    webSettings.setBuiltInZoomControls(true);


    wv.loadUrl("http://www.yahoo.com");
}

private class Callback extends WebViewClient {
    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        return(true);
    }
}

}

Or simply add WebChromeClient():

WebView wv = (WebView) findViewById(R.id.webview1);
wv.setWebChromeClient(new WebChromeClient());

Using WebChromeClient allows you to handle Javascript dialogs!

You didn't assign your WebViewClient to your WebView. Do this:

wv.setWebViewClient(new Callback());

If you just want to show all pages inside the WebView instead of openning then in the default browser, you only need to speficy a WebViewClient. It's not even necessary to create a custom class that extends WebViewClient

wv.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
