Ralph Paßgang created CB-2822:
---------------------------------
Summary: InAppBrowser on iOS 5.x opens page in "_blank" and
"_self" at the same time. "_blank" was expected.
Key: CB-2822
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2822
Project: Apache Cordova
Issue Type: Bug
Components: iOS
Affects Versions: 2.5.0
Environment: iOS 5.x
Reporter: Ralph Paßgang
Assignee: Shazron Abdullah
Priority: Critical
If we open a webpage within our app with the following command:
window.open(<url>, '_blank');
then it works on iOS 6.x, Android and BlackBerry, but on iOS 5.x the following
happens:
The InAppBrowser is opened and <url> gets loaded and displayed. After closing
the InAppBrowser you will see that the app itself got replaced with the same
page that has been loaded in the InAppBrowser before (the page for <url>). This
is what I would expect if the page would have been loaded with "_self", but
because "_blank" was used, this is totally unwanted.
That leads to the fact that the app is not useable anymore after using the
InAppBrowser and must be closed, terminated & restarted completely to be
functional again.
I will attach some screenshots to visualize the problem.
best regards,
Ralph
P.s.: I want to use this opportunity to thank you and all contributors for such
a great project. Keep up the great work!
