how can you have a url in an app spawn the local browser app

Hello all,

we are building both a mobile web and an app with touch 2. we have certain legal links we need to open in a new browser. this is easy in the mobile web, but how do we do cross OS code to make a link tap put the app into the background and open the local browser?

Thanks

Jeff

Is window.location = 'url' not working?

that opens the url in the webview we need it to send a request to the browser app installed on the mobile device.
