             Summary: inappbrowser -- provide ability to hide browser window 
without closing session
                 Key: CB-8467
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8467
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Android, CordovaJS, iOS
    Affects Versions: Master
            Reporter: Eric Kidder


I have a need to hide the InAppBrowser UI without closing the session.  This is 
to handle a situation I have, where a RESTful interface uses authentication and 
will redirect users to a separate login page.

The InAppBrowser is created with hidden=yes, so that it is created without a UI.

When the user is authenticated, the JSON will be downloaded normally and the 
browser window will not be shown.

When the user is not authorized, they will be redirected to an HTML page in 
order to authenticate.

After authentication, the user is redirected back to the API URL, where the 
JSON will be displayed in the InAppBrowser.

Having the ability to hide the browser window will keep the user from seeing 
the JSON and improve the user experience.
