Unable to use JavaScript to redirect to a different page.
---------------------------------------------------------
Key: CB-62
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-62
Project: Apache Callback
Issue Type: Bug
Components: iOS
Reporter: Shazron Abdullah
**Summary:** You can no longer redirect to a different page by updating
`document.location.href`.
reported at: https://github.com/phonegap/phonegap-iphone/issues/270
by: https://github.com/buddydvd
**To reproduce:** Add `www.google.com` to `PhoneGap.plist`'s `ExternalHosts`
array. Add an anchor link to `index.html` with its `onclick` handler set to use
JavaScript to redirect the webView to`http://www.google.com`.
<a href="#" onclick="document.location.href='http://www.google.com/';
return false;">click me</a>
**Expected:** Clicking the anchor link will load `http://www.google.com` in the
embedded webView.
**Actual:** Clicking the anchor link loads `http://www.google.com` in Mobile
Safari.
