#Stay Standalone

A short script to prevent internal links to a "webapp" added to iPhone home screen to open in Safari instead of navigating internally.

(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&&(chref=d.href).replace(e.href,"").indexOf("#")&&(!/^[a-z\+\.\-]+:/i.test(chref)||chref.indexOf(e.protocol+"//"+e.host)===0)&&(a.preventDefault(),e.href=d.href)},!1)}})(document,window.navigator,"standalone");
