Viewed 307

I have to create new cordova/phonegap application, where I just need to open my websites which contains map and markers on it or any others.

After searching I got plugin like ChildBrowser and InAppBrowser in cordova/phonegap.

But I am not sure which is best or which is latest and what exactly difference between them?

Please help me to find out solution or any references.

Thanks.

Well just few points to help you which you should use.

Childbrowser

  • childbrowser is not an official plugin.
  • It is just the prototype.
  • It is not documented very well.
  • It is not updated regularly.

InappBrowser

  • InappBrowser is an official plugin for cordova/phonegap
  • It is more flexible.
  • It is documented very well.
  • It is regularly updated.

So InappBrowser must be the choice as while developing you need the proper documentation and proper support.

hope this helps.
