PhoneGap/Cordova. childBrowser plugin giving starnge URL (iOS)
- by MeltingDog
I am having a great deal of difficulty getting the childBrowser plugin to work
Currently when I click my link it does nothing on my iOS simulator and when I click it using a browser I get a Web Page Not Found error with the web address looking something like:
file://myapp/www/%C3%A2%E2%82%AC%C2%9D#???????
I am really stuck for ideas on whats going on and what is causing this, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
My code is:
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="js/ChildBrowser.js"></script>
<script>
function onDeviceReady() {
childbrowser = ChildBrowser.install();
var root = this;
cb = window.plugins.childBrowser;
if(cb != null) {
cb.onLocationChange = function(loc){ root.locChanged(loc); };
cb.onClose = function(){root.onCloseBrowser(); };
cb.onOpenExternal = function(){root.onOpenExternal(); };
//cb.showWebPage(“http://google.com”);
}
}
function onCloseBrowser() {
console.log(“onCloseBrowser!”);
}
function locChanged(loc) {
console.log(“locChanged!”);
}
function onOpenExternal() {
alert(“onOpenExternal!”);
}
<body onLoad=”onBodyLoad()”>
<a href=”#” onclick=’cb.showWebPage(“http://www.google.com”);’>Click Me</a>
