Intercepting page loads in WebView

WebView browser = (WebView)findViewById(R.id.browser);
browser.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient() {
    /* On Android 1.1 shouldOverrideUrlLoading() will be called every time the user clicks a link,
     * but on Android 1.5 it will be called for every page load, even if it was caused by calling loadUrl()! */
    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url)
    {
        /* intercept all page load attempts and load yahoo.com instead */
        String myAlternativeURL = "http://yahoo.com";
        if (!url.equals(myAlternativeURL)) {
            view.loadUrl(myAlternativeURL);
            return true;
        }

        return false;
    }
});

browser.loadUrl("http://lexandera.com/");
