Interesting Cordova issues with JQM.

in jQuery Mobile • 7 years ago

I have been playing with Cordova for the last couple of days and I have most of what I want working. I just ran into an issue that changePage would not work until I add the flat $.mobile.allowCrossDomainPages = true ; What is interesting is ajax calls worked just fine. Is this the way JQM has to work or am I missing something? This is my change page code.

var url = oLoginmgr.baseurl+"/admin/cor/admin_login";
      console.log(url);
   //$.mobile.changePage(url);
   $("body").pagecontainer('change',url);

flag.

Thanks Chris

So is setting allowCrossDomainPages = true a security risk?

What I assume you are not telling us is that the page you are navigating-to is on your website (or some other website). Right?

The WebView considers the "origin" of the site to be a directory in the local filesystem on the device. Thus, your website is considered "cross-domain".

Thanks watusiware, that makes sense. The interesting part of this is ajax calls returning json seems to not have this problem. The allowCrossDomainPages flag only effected changing pages. For now, I am not going to worry about the security implications but I think I may be able to white list my domain using the Cordova white list plugin.

$.ajax() is jQuery, not jQuery Mobile, and has nothing to do with jQuery Mobile pages.

Cordova proxies Ajax requests, fooling the browser into thinking they are local.

jQuery Mobile still knows they are cross-domain, by examining the URL. So, you have to tell JQM to allow cross-domain requests. JQM defaults to not allowing them, in order to avoid unintended script injection.

JQM doesn't know nor care that you are using Cordova.

Yes, you have to white-list your domain.
