Prevent iOS web app's from opening internal links in safari

open link in app

<script>(function(a,b,c){if(c in b&&b[c]){var d,e=a.location,f=/^(a|html)$/i;a.addEventListener("click",function(a){d=a.target;while(!f.test(d.nodeName))d=d.parentNode;"href"in d&&(d.href.indexOf("http")||~d.href.indexOf(e.host))&&(a.preventDefault(),e.href=d.href)},!1)}})(document,window.navigator,"standalone")</script>

This is excellent! It's better than the other scripts i've implemented. You seemed to have taken into account anchors with hashtags (which I use for buttons to trigger jQuery events.) but still allows users to click to outbound urls too.

Would you mind adding the code with comments to help explain the logic behind how you designed it?

p.s. I was just exploring some other options this morning and I'm wondering if there would be a simple way to use the jQuery load method on internal pages to use an ajax load for page content. This way toolbars and such could stay while the page is loaded.

$("#area").load("something.html #area > *");
