Confirm link to Safari from WebView

[starwarsdevwookie59]

I have a UIWebView set up to launch any clicked links in Safari. I know the code to make a UIAlert but i cant find a way to implement it here. Basically I want to click on a link. It loads nothing. Asks you if you want to go to Safari. If you click OK it does... If you click cancel, it does nothing... Heres my code: Any ideas? Thanks!

- (BOOL)webViewUIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequestNSURLRequest *)request navigationTypeUIWebViewNavigationType)navigation Type;
{
NSURL *loadURL = [ [ request URL ] retain ]; // retain the loadURL for use
if ( ( [ [ loadURL scheme ] isEqualToString: @"http" ] || [ [ loadURL scheme ] isEqualToString: @"https" ] ) && ( navigationType == UIWebViewNavigationTypeLinkClicked ) )
return ![ [ UIApplication sharedApplication ] openURL: [ loadURL autorelease ] ];

[ loadURL release ];
return YES; // URL is not http/https and should open in UIWebView

}

Just stumbled across this thread. Maybe I'm too late but here is how I would do it:

- (BOOL)webView:(UIWebView *)webView shouldStartLoadWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request navigationType:(UIWebViewNavigationType)navigationType;

{
	NSURL *loadURL = [[request URL] retain];
	
	// Check navigationType. Else this alert will be visible on every load of UIWebView 
	if ( ( [ [ loadURL scheme ] isEqualToString: @"http" ] || [ [ loadURL scheme ] isEqualToString: @"https" ] ) && ( navigationType == UIWebViewNavigationTypeLinkClicked ) )
	{
		UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Open Safari?" 
													   message :@"Whatever you want to put here..."
													   delegate:self 
											  cancelButtonTitle: @"No"
											  otherButtonTitles:@"Yes", nil];
		
		[alert show];
		[alert release];
		
		savedLink = [[request URL] retain];
		
		[loadURL release];
	} 
	else
	{
		[loadURL release];
		return YES;
	}
	return NO;
}

And then:

- (void)alertView:(UIAlertView *)alertView clickedButtonAtIndex:(NSInteger)buttonIndex
{
	if(buttonIndex == 1)
	{
		[[UIApplication sharedApplication] openURL:savedLink];
	}
}
