> If we open a webpage within our app with the following command:
> window.open(<url>, '_blank');
> then it works on iOS 6.x, Android and BlackBerry, but on iOS 5.x the following happens:
> The InAppBrowser is opened and <url> gets loaded and displayed. After closing the InAppBrowser you will see that the app itself got replaced with the same page that has been loaded in the InAppBrowser before (the page for <url>). This is what I would expect if the page would have been loaded with "_self", but because "_blank" was used, this is totally unwanted. 
> That leads to the fact that the app is not useable anymore after using the InAppBrowser and must be closed, terminated & restarted completely to be functional again.
> I will attach some screenshots to visualize the problem.
> best regards,

> P.s.: I want to use this opportunity to thank you and all contributors for such a great project. Keep up the great work!
