Description

When I switch to another application (such as Safari) and follow a link that leads to my application such as: myapp://some/path the window.invokeString is not set to "myapp://some/path" as I expect.

To reproduce, create an custom url schema for the app add this to the app:
document.addEventListener("resume", function() {
console.log("Invoke: " + window.invokeString);
}, false);

Exit the app and follow a link that leads to the app.

I suspect that the bug should be fixed by adding something like this to the resume:
if (self.invokeString)

{ // this is passed before the deviceready event is fired, so you can access it in js when you receive deviceready NSString* jsString = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"var invokeString = \"%@\";", self.invokeString]; [theWebView stringByEvaluatingJavaScriptFromString:jsString]; }

The code is taken from MainViewController.m
