Answer 1

You should look at the WebUIDelegate protocol, specifically this delegate method:

- (WebView *)webView:(WebView *)sender createWebViewWithRequest:(NSURLRequest *)request;

If you've got an object registered as the WebView's UI delegate then this method is called when the Flash plug-in sends a URL change request. You can then do what you want with the request. By default, the WebView just ignores it.
