I have a couple of links in my app that link to the in app browser. These websites have PDFs that we need to download. However, when I click the links to download them, nothing happens. How can I get the in app browser to work with these downloads? I like in the in app browser because it has the "done" button allowing me to go back to the app. thanks!

Hello!

There is no way to do that. inAppBrowser can't download files. But you can download PDF in your app (here is more information http://cordova.apache.org/docs/en/3.0...).
Open sites in inAppBrowser and track navigation. If it goest to PDF file, download itprevar ref = window.open("http://your.site.com/", '_blank', 'location=yes');
ref.addEventListener('loadstart', function(event) {
if (event.url.indexOf(".pdf") === event.url.length-4) {
//download file event.url
}
});/pre
