------------------------------------------

Closing issue..  Seems the code 'alert("hello world");' crashes Windows 8.1, 
while in Windows 10 does nothing, works in 'browser' and Android.  I"m still 
having network issues, but my application is no longer crashing on me for 
debugging purposes.

Sorry to bother everyone.

> In Apache Cordova (v6.3.1) WINDOWS platform code (v4.5.0-dev),  due to Issue 
> CB-10480 ( 
> https://github.com/apache/cordova-windows/commit/d783f2073430492e59d99009b30411fb8e8e897a
>  ) in platform.js  the final "else" clause was removed
> " // windows 8.0 + IE 10
>  -                scriptElem.src = "//Microsoft.WinJS.1.0/js/base.js";", 
> since Windows 8.0 code was removed.
> Now, the Windows 8.1. Pro Dell Tablet I'm testing with (Internet Explorer 
> 11), is reporting the variable navigator.appVersion as "5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; 
> Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/52.0.2743.116 
> Safari/537.36".   Due to that value, therefore Apache Cordova will never load 
> the WinJS stuff because it falls thru the logic entirely.. 
> The end results is that the application crashes when anything WinJS related 
> is accessed by code (when I try to do a network check, it will obviously 
> fail), since WinJS never loaded properly.
> Recommend having one basic final "else" clause that will either 1. Load a 
> very basic version to provide SOME functionality, or 2) Provide some form of 
> loading error feedback.  But that's just my own opinion..  
> Thanks for all the hard work and great software.
