jQueryMobile + PhoneGap - links to "outside world" being loaded by ajax, but I want to switch to the mobile's browser

in jQuery Mobile • 11 years ago

Sorry for the long title, but I can't think of a better way to word it :)

The problem is simple: I'm packaging a simple jQuery Mobile app in PhoneGap; My app has some external links which I'd like to open in the user's browser, not in the app itself.

I tried setting target="_new" on the anchors, and it works as expected in iOS. But I have to support Android & Blackberry too, and both of those seem to ignore the target, and instead jQueryMobile appears to dynamically load the remote page into the app itself.

I've looked over PhoneGap's API and I can't find an (obvious, at least) API to defer links to the system browser. So I'm wondering if anybody here has any experience with this and can help me out?

Thanks,

target="_blank" works

Unfortunately, it's not working for me. The links still open in the app itself.

If I view the app in a web browser, instead of from a phonegap app, the links open in a new tab. So it must be a phonegap issue, but I can't figure out how to tell phonegap how to act differently.

Hi,

I think you must write a custom PhoneGap plugin and open the web browser.

Search in Google how to open Web browser in SO that you are development(Android, IPhone, ect.)

I hope the answer helps you
