Hi!, I've read a number of posts about opening up a link in safari. Some are for old versions of phonegap, while others I am not sure.
So, what's the working solution for the current versions?
Thanks!
Igor

Well, I quickly searched your source code for "window.open" and found nothing. So it looks like you're not actually using the InAppBrowser.
Have a look at the docs on how to use it:

My code has three steps:
I have four links with the same class in my index.html page:
I add click handlers in my document.ready function in my linked script file; these should run the "rate()" function when the links are tapped.
In the rate function I have the "window.open..." code as mentioned in the documentation you sent me:
More specific guidance would be greatly appreciated. I realize I am doing something wrong but the documentation you sent me is confusing and difficult to sift through. Thank you for your time.

OK well I don't think you're doing anything wrong, as safari is succesfully being launched. It seems like safari isn't handling the url or forward very well.
What does your forward.html do?
Could you add an alert to forward.html to see if that page is successfully opening?
Could you skip that step and try opening the app store uri directly from your app?

For me, Safari is successfully launching the app store -- but the app store is blank (app doesn't exist?).
Edit: hrm I see that the app does exist. But I find that typing it directly into the safari address bar has the same effect. This may be an issue outside of PhoneGap, and rather with Safari. Maybe you should post somewhere more general like stackoverflow ...
