Hello, I'm trying to load a webpage within the app.

I was told to use the following code:
window.plugins.childBrowser.showWebPage('http://www.google.com', { showLocationBar: true });

But I have no idea, where I paste this code.

Basically I just want startpage, to load a webpage

Thankyou

Hi

From your startScreen
Select Events
startScreen Device Ready Run Java Script
Function
window.plugins.childBrowser.showWebPage('http://www.google.com', { showLocationBar: true });

Hi

Will this work inside the test in browser preview ?

I ask because I followed the above steps, and the webpage did not open, was there another step I was meant to do, besides adding the event ?

Thankyou again

Hi,

ChildBrowser is a PhoneGap plugin. It works on IPA/APK only, not on browser.
Create new JavaScript asset with the following code:
precodefunction myNavigate(url) {
var cb;
if (window.plugins) {
cb = window.plugins.childBrowser;
}
if (cb != null) {
cb.showWebPage(url);
} else {
window.open(url);
};
}/code/pre
When needed run JavaScript:codemyNavigate( URL );/code

Hi

Thankyou for your help with this.

Best regards

No on device only
