# Bug Report

## Problem

### What is expected to happen?
I am using inappbrowser to display a page that eventually performs a redirect using location.replace().

### What does actually happen?
For some reason it seems that the location.replace() call has no effect.
Thanks

### Version information

Cordova: Cordova CLI 8.12
Operating System: Android Studio

No source file, test, or entry point is named. Start by reproducing the location.replace() redirect in the InAppBrowser _blank mode on Android, then trace the plugin's handling of that mode and verify that the redirect takes effect.
