RE: Is there a way to prevent urls from being entered from the
br owser?
Pick up something like mozilla as source,
Fix it up so it has no location bar.. ( maybe just a link to ur app )
Distribute it...
Now they can enter stuff in ur forms and all, but not in the location bar..
Hey its opensource, use it..

So to "prevent urls from being entered from the browser" all you have
to do is take the keyboard and mouse out the equation.
Nice solution I can see how that would be useful for most folk's.
