[jira] [Created] (CB-7560) Tel and Mailto links don't work in iframe

Nathan Smith created CB-7560:
--------------------------------

             Summary: Tel and Mailto links don't work in iframe
                 Key: CB-7560
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7560
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: iOS
    Affects Versions: 3.5.0
         Environment: Tested on iPhone 4s running iOS 7
            Reporter: Nathan Smith


Tel and Mailto hyperlinks don't work if contained in an iframe.
The cause of this issue is this line of code: [GitHub|https://github.com/apache/cordova-ios/commit/7e0a32892a540295e7de5da6a4832dfdaf337ac0?diff=unified#diff-8e93b8e59d39213ac17678c5b7470b3cR206].
It seems that {noformat}[NSURLConnection canHandleRequest:request]{noformat} returns {{false}} in this case causing the links to not function.

Example App:
{code:title=app.html}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8"/>
        <meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"/>
    </head>
    <body>
        <a href="tel:041245">Top Level Tel</a>
        <a href="mailto:example@example.com">Top Level Mailto</a>
        <iframe src="iframe.html"></iframe>
        <script type="text/javascript" src="cordova.js"></script>
    </body>
</html>
{code}
{code:title=iframe.html}
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8"/>
        <meta name="viewport" content="initial-scale=1, maximum-scale=1, user-scalable=no"/>
    </head>
    <body>
        <a href="tel:041245">iFrame Tel</a>
        <a href="mailto:example@example.com">iFrame Mailto</a>
    </body>
</html>
{code}
