How to make QML WebView Element use Qt::openUrlExternally for all ‘new windows’?

Hello,
Please anyone know how to make QML WebView Element use Qt::openUrlExternally(url) instead of newWindowComponent (when clicking on link that try to open a newWindowComponent)?

hmmm i don't think there is any direct way , but you try something like onLoadStarted you can check for the URL and than call Qt.openUrlExternally there. I am not sure how this is going to work this is just an idea.

I tried this:

onLoadStarted: {console.log("url: "+url); Qt.openUrlExternally(url);}

but onLoadStarted doesn't show/open any url when the web page try to open an new window.

If isn't possible to do this directly with QML WebVew, there is a possibility to do this with QNetworkAccessManager to catch and open externally the url of newWindowComponent?
