Opening external webpage from within a Tizen web app

Opening external webpage from within a Tizen web app

BY 15 Aug 2013 Web Application Development

Hello,

This has been a real challenge for me. We have developed a web app and all works fine in the Tizen web based simulator EXCEPT a feature that allows a person to open an external website in a browser window within the app (similar childbrowser in Android and iOS). We have tried so many different variations but none of them work. To put it simply, when a user clicks a link it will open an internal browser page containing an external website. I have applied all the settings to the config.xml file and used what I have been told is the correct code but it continues to simply not work. I will be extremely grateful if someone out there can help me with this issue.

——————————————

added to the config.xml file

    <access origin=”https://www.ulore.com” subdomains=”true”></access>
    <access origin=”*” subdomains=”true”></access>
    <access origin=”http://www.ulore.com” subdomains=”true”></access>
    <access origin=”http://ulore.com” subdomains=”true”></access>
 
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/application”/>
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/application.read”/>
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/application.launch”/>
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/application.kill”/>
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/setting”/>
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/system”/>
    <feature name=”http://tizen.org/api/systemmanager”/>

AND when the link is clicked the url value is stored in variable dUrl
 
var target = dUrl;
var appControl = new tizen.ApplicationControl(“http://tizen.org/appcontrol/operation/view”, target);
 
tizen.application.launchAppControl(appControl, null,
function() {console.log(“browser opened”); },
function(e) {App.Share.notify(“browser error: ” + e.message); });
 
 
I am using Tizen SDK 2.2 on Mac OSX
 
Thanks in advance
Ethan-Anthony
