Hi @ardiwine a little modification that could help, Regards.

`var webview = Ti.UI.createWebview({
html: '[ PUT YOUR HTML HERE ]'
})

webview.addEventListener('beforeload', function(e) {
var url = e.url;

if (/^(www|http)/.test(url.toString())) {
    webview.stopLoading(true);
    Ti.Platform.openURL(url);
}

});`
