phonegap: open external page and then go back to app

Question

ok, browsing the questions I\'ve found the right way to load an external page into the phonegap view (i.e. without loosing the session or opening the device browser) as explaine

Answer 1

This is using PhoneGap/Cordova 2.7. Inside your external app, add a link that points to "app://index".

Inside onCreate add:

this.appView.setWebViewClient(new CordovaWebViewClient(this, this.appView) {

    @Override
    public boolean shouldOverrideUrlLoading(WebView view, String url) {
        if(url.equalsIgnoreCase("app://index")) {
            Log.d("DEBUG", url);

            loadUrl(Config.getStartUrl());

            return true;
        } else {
            return super.shouldOverrideUrlLoading(view, url);
        }
    }
});

This will intercept the call and redirect the user to the configured start url.
