NiklasMerz opened a new issue #599: Remove window.open overwrite URL: https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser/issues/599 # Feature Request ## Motivation Behind Feature <!-- Why should this feature be implemented? What problem does it solve? --> Like described in the README file a long time ago there was a plan to remove the backwards compatibility of overwriting `window.open` in a future release. [See](WKWebViewOnly https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-inappbrowser#windowopen) > For backwards compatibility, this plugin also hooks window.open. However, the plugin-installed hook of window.open can have unintended side effects (especially if this plugin is included only as a dependency of another plugin). The hook of window.open will be removed in a future major release. Until the hook is removed from the plugin, apps can manually restore the default behaviour: ## Feature Description <!-- Describe your feature request in detail Please provide any code examples or screenshots of what this feature would look like Are there any drawbacks? Will this break anything for existing users? --> We should remove this overwrite of the native browser window function to avoid errors like this: #315 #403 ## Alternatives or Workarounds <!-- Describe alternatives or workarounds you are currently using Are there ways to do this with existing functionality? --> A proposal to change the docs exists #528
