Installation
cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser
If you want all page loads in your app to go through the InAppBrowser, you can simply hook window.open
during initialization. For example:
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
function onDeviceReady() {
window.open = cordova.InAppBrowser.open;
}
cordova.InAppBrowser.open
Opens a URL in a new InAppBrowser
instance, the current browser instance, or the system browser.
var ref = cordova.InAppBrowser.open(url, target, options);
ref: Reference to the InAppBrowser
window when the target is set to '_blank'
. (InAppBrowser)
url: The URL to load (String). Call encodeURI()
on this if the URL contains Unicode characters.
target: The target in which to load the URL, an optional parameter that defaults to _self
