Description

In the browser, the url attribute of the loadstop event (InAppBrowserEvent) is not a string as documented, but a Location object. The url is stored in event.href.

Steps to reproduce:

$ cordova create eventstop_url
$ cd eventstop_url
$ cordova plugin add cordova-plugin-inappbrowser

Run the following code after device ready:

// https://ssl.gstatic.com as an example because it is allowed by the default CSP
var ref = cordova.InAppBrowser.open('https://ssl.gstatic.com', '_blank');
ref.addEventListener('loadstop', function (event) {
    console.log("loadstop event:", event);
});

$ cordova serve

The console output is:

loadstop event: Object {type: "loadstop", url: Location}
