Is it possible intercept when a user clicks a link in a UIWebView and retrieve the link?
I wish to block the UIWebView from going to the clicked link and do something else.
Thanks in advance.

Yes, look at the UIWebViewDelegate Protocol Reference, specifically
webView:shouldStartLoadWithRequest:navigationType:The
NSURLRequestwill let you know where the link they clicked is going to direct them.You would simply return
NOon this method if you want to prevent the request from loading.
