Question

So I have a phonegap project with Phonegap 2.9.0 and building with PhonegapBuild.
I got external links in my app, that I would like to open inapp or using the default de

Answer 1

I would start by asking : in the file config.xml the preference stay-in-webview is deprecated now for phonegap 2.3.0 right? So nothing to hope here?

That's correct. Dont even worry about this setting if you are using 2.9

I read and try a lot about the plugin InAppBrowser with window.open and target system / blank / self but no differences for me. I stay InApp but useless because no navigation buttons. Am I missing something here?

I had a few issues getting this to work as well. Their documentation is a bit scattered and need to read it all. Here is how I get it working:

1. Ensure you have in each of your pages that wants to use the inappbrowser
2. You should NOT need to include a plug-in tag in your config.xml. I am pretty sure that around 2.5 they included inappbrowser in the core build functionality.

3. To open a link in the inappbrowser, use this javascript:

   function openURL(urlString){
       myURL = encodeURI(urlString);
       window.open(myURL, '_blank');
   }
   

   This will open the passed URL in the inappbrowser. If you change window.open(myURL, '_blank'); to window.open(myURL, '_system'); it will open the passed URL in the system browser.

4. Finally, your item clicks look like this:
