Description

This seems similar for bug #804 (Android), but this also applies to iPhone. After a webview is launched, the URL property does not change when clicking to a link to another URL, or when a redirect happens.

I tried unsuccessfully using this to catch an Oauth redirected callback URL.

    Can we pretty please also have a locationChange event when the url changes (also for remote webviews)?
    This doesn't sound like much, but would be a killer feature for me!

  3. Blain Hamon 2011-06-06 @Jacob: WebView already has a 'load' event that fires whenever a page loads. This event even has a property called 'url' that, when the webview reflects an url instead of being called with setHtml or setData, is accurate to the new page.
  4. Blain Hamon 2011-06-06 On a successful page load, we change the proxy's url to reflect the new page.
  5. Eric Merriman 2011-06-06 There is no sample code attached with this bug, (nor with the original LH ticket), could we get a quick test attached?
  6. Blain Hamon 2011-06-17 D'oh. Let's add some code, shall we? 
       var win = Ti.UI.createWindow();
   var webview = Ti.UI.createWebView({url:'http://www.google.com',bottom:50});
   var button = Ti.UI.createButton({title:'Log URL',height:50,bottom:0});
   
   button.addEventListener('click',function(E){
   	Ti.API.debug('Url is now: '+webview.url);
   });
   
   win.add(webview);
   win.add(button);
   win.open();
