If you want to disable all user input (keyboard, mouse, etc) to the WebView, you can call 

webView.setDisable(true);

If you only want to block keyboard input (so you allow mouse input, etc), add an event filter that consumes keyboard events:

webView.addEventFilter(KeyEvent.ANY, KeyEvent::consume);

Note that this doesn't prevent the user from (for example) searching on google as they can use the mouse to paste text into text fields, etc.
