URL Button Issue

Avatar

Level 5

Hi, I have noticed an issue related to URL buttons when I navigate to a page via a button. They don't launch the in-app browser. However, if I swipe to the next page vs. navigating via a button, they launch fine. If I navigate to a page via a button and move the page (not completing a swipe) they will launch the browser. I am using the Button action (goto next page).

Thoughts?

Thanks!

Hi Jeff,

I'm not sure I follow the problem. Can you post an example of the hyperlink URL you're using? What OS are you on (iOS, Android, Windows)? And you're using the DPS 2015 beta?

Sure Neil. I'm using the DPS 2015 Production UI, not Beta. I'm testing on iPad IOS 8.4. Basically, any URL Button I create that opens the in-app browser; if I swipe to a page that has the URL button and tap it, it'll launch the in-app browser as expected. If I navigate to the same page via a button on the previous page, or from any page for that matter, (as apposed to swiping to it) the URL button doesn't activate the in-app browser.

The URL in question is:

Hmm, interesting. So tapping on it does nothing?

Not a thing. I have abother button on the page that works fine (goto next page though) and one that I didn't add any actions to that displays the upper chrome (like I was just tapping the screen and is an expected reaction)
