How to open a web page inside an iOS app with phonegap?
cordova, html, ios, javascript, url
Solution
d0nparalias,
If you want to load main(Cordova's) `index.html` from remote server, edit `config.xml` file and change `<content src="index.html" />` to `<content src="http://192.168.1.4:8080/www/index.html" />` for example. And it will load `index.html` from web server located on 192.168.1.4.
If you want to open a website right after loading your app, you can use InAppBrowser as you have already noticed. `window.open(url, target, options);` Here you have options for `target` (according to Cordova docs 2.5.0):
2.1. `_self` and you'll get something like Note, that you don't have any controls to return to your `index.html` in this case.
2.2. `_blank` — presents modal view controller with dismiss button
2.3. `_system` — opens in Safari.app
For more information visit documentation and wiki.
Hope it helps. BR. Eugene
