             Summary: InAppBrowser loadstarted event on iOS returns URLS only after connecting and redirecting
                 Key: CB-2672
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-2672
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: iOS
    Affects Versions: 2.5.0
            Reporter: Shravan Narayan
            Assignee: Shravan Narayan
             Fix For: 2.6.0


The loadstarted event in the inAppBrowser in iOS gets data from webViewDidStartLoad in UIWebViewDelegate. This returns url's only after they begin loading.  
Eg: navigation to www.gmail.com would return 'mail.google.com' instead of 'www.gmail.com' & 'mail.google.com'
navigation to www.some-site-that-doesnt-exist.com would not return anything

Correct implementation on android whose loadstarted event gets data from onPageStarted. onPageStarted returns url's before they are loaded.

http://developer.android.com/reference/android/webkit/WebViewClient.html#onPageStarted(android.webkit.WebView, java.lang.String, android.graphics.Bitmap)


Fix: use the webView:shouldStartLoadWithRequest:navigationType: to give events to loadStarted
