Answer 1

This seems to have changed, and access origin seems to have no effect. If you're using the cordova whitelist plugin, as seems to be standard. You need to use allow-navigation in your config.xml file. Without this it will open your web browser.

<plugin name="cordova-plugin-whitelist" version="1"/>
<allow-navigation href="https://google.com/*" />

Then you can use window.location = 'https://google.com' to move to another webpage within your JS.

Ahhh.. Found the answer on this question. I had to add

<access origin="www.google.com"/>

to the phonegap.xml file.

Answer 3

In the latest phonegab (1.7) in Cordova.plist there is a Key: OpenAllWhitelistURLsInWebView set this to YES.
