[jira] [Commented] (CB-40) Displaying video youtube on app and not in safari

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-40?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13158737#comment-13158737 ]

I can confirm this by using HTML Embed, iFrame and/or Object tag inside an app, a desired content will be opened in a new Safari Window instead of within the app.

I did a test on PhoneGap 1.0 & 1.1 on both iOS 4 & 5 emulator and both behave the same. I also did a research and it is possible to use the said tags within UIWebView in a normal condition (without PhoneGap):
