Hey,

I would like to know how you can disable UIAlerts, specifically the Alerts being displayed after tapping and holding hyperlinks in a UIWebView. These seem to be enabled by default in UIWebViews containing the link address of the respective link in the title of the alert. They are also enabled in Safari.

(How) is it possible to disable all alerts of this kind within a UIWebView?

Thanks in advance!
