External Links not opening

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
I am using MVC 1.0 and iui .13 on the iPhone version 3.0. I've also tried 
iui .20 but that has not helped. I have a normal link going to 
http://maps.google.com but when clicked the spinner spins but and then 
stops but the page doesn't go to the new one.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
It is expected to open up the external link. The page stays where it is 
and the spinner spins for a few seconds and then stops.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I've tried .13 and .20 with MVC 1.0 on the iPhone version 3

Please provide any additional information below.
I have taken out the links to the .js and .css files and it works as 
planned.

Any help on this?

I've narrowed it down to the iui.js file that is included in the page.

If I take that out, the link works fine. Anyone know what in the iui.js file 
would 
break external links on the iPhone 3.0 using MVC?

Can you provide us with a link? - i would debug it with firefox + firebug, so 
you see
whats going on in the js. Sounds like AJAX is bugging you...

I imagine it's because you don't have a target attribute set.  Try setitng the 
target attribute to either _self or _blank.

Comment #3 is probably right.  I believe iUI is operating according to "spec".
