>                 Key: CB-7539
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-7539
>             Project: Apache Cordova
>          Issue Type: Sub-task
>          Components: iOS
>            Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
>            Priority: Blocker
>
> This workaround is because of this bug:
> http://www.openradar.me/radar?id=5839348817723392
> (filed with Apple of course also)
> I'm still hoping that Apple fixes this in iOS 8.1, but we should have this as a contingency plan.
> Create this as an included plugin, so it can be extracted later if need be.
> We need to secure access to the local webserver, probably through a session token in the header, since background apps can have access to the webserver. The session token is passed down to the initially loaded local page specified from the <content> tag in config.xml, and should be used in the cordova.exec call. We would also need to implement local proxy support , see CB-7348
> This all sounds more complex than it needs to be than just loading a file url -- wishing Apple would just fix this in iOS 8.1 instead.
