title: Is there any way to have WebView auto-link URLs and phone numbers in Android?
body: <p>If a page has a URL or a phone number on it that isn't a link is there any way to have <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebView.html" rel="noreferrer">WebView</a> recognize it and automatically turn it into a link like you can with <a href="http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/TextView.html" rel="noreferrer">TextView</a>s?</p>
  
  <p>With a <code>TextView</code> you would simply set the <code>android:autoLink</code> to the desired settings:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;TextView
      android:autoLink="web|phone"
      ... /&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>but I can't find any equivalent for <code>WebView</code>.</p>
