Vladimir Kotikov commented on CB-9049:
--------------------------------------

The code, you provided, works as expected, because Windows, due to platform 
restrictions, doesn't support navigation to remote pages. The only way to 
navigate to remote page - open it in iframe/webview ({{InAppBrowser.open}} with 
{{_blank}} option).

The code above will work as you expected only in case of navigating to bundled 
page using {{ms-appx:///}} schema. For reference see

>          Components: Plugin InAppBrowser

> According to the 
> [documentation|https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser#supported-platforms]
>  Windows 8.1 WebView is supported by this plugin. Now given the following 
> simple code inside {{index.html}}
> {code}
> <body>
>   <button id='launch'>Go to Google</button>
>   <script src='cordova.js'></script>
>   <script>
>   document.addEventListener('deviceready', function() {
>     document.querySelector('#launch').addEventListener('click', function() {
>       cordova.InAppBrowser.open('http://www.google.ch', '_self', 
> 'location=no');
>     }, false);
>   }, false);
>   </script>
> </body>
> {code}
> Clicking the button above inside the WebView results in a new _browser_ 
> window being opened pointing to {{http://www.google.ch}}. However my 
> understanding is, given the target value as {{_self}} and the following 
> whitelist entry inside {{config.xml}}
> {code}
> <access origin="*" />
> {code}
> The site should open inside the WebView _itself_.
