InAppBrowser doesn't work on Android.

[Aaron Joshua Cajes <aa...@me.com>]

I've created a new cordova app using the latest version: 3.4.0 and i've also added the IAB plug-in (org.apache.cordova.InAppBrowser). 

It works smoothly in iOS but it doesn't work on Android. It doesn't even open a single webpage. 

The code is:

<a href="#" onClick="window.open('http://www.google.com','_system');

Just wondering if there's a working fix. I've googled around but nothing came even close to a possible fix. Hope someone helps.

Thanks!

I have the latest 3.4 code and have a working android app that uses 
inAppBrowser.  Aaron, can you run cordova plugin list and make sure the 
plugin is installed?  Are you seeing any errors in the console?  I 
typically open eclipse when I'm debugging an android cordova app and watch 
the LogCat console for errors.

That actually should load in the system browser, and not in the
InAppBrowser.  I just checked this, and this currently works as
intended on the Nexus 5.  If it's not opening at all on your phone,
that's most likely a problem with your phone's browser.  We explicitly
test this in MobileSpec.

Can you please create an issue in JIRA here
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB/) and write which device
you're currently using?

Thanks

Joe
