Opening a web page in the current tab

Opening/closing a web page in an iFrame

WA.nav.openCoWebSite(url: string, allowApi: boolean = false, allowPolicy: string = ""): void
WA.nav.closeCoWebSite(): void

Opens the webpage at "url" in an iFrame (on the right side of the screen) or close that iFrame. allowApi allows the webpage to use the "IFrame API" and execute script (it is equivalent to putting the openWebsiteAllowApi property in the map). allowPolicy grants additional access rights to the iFrame. The allowPolicy parameter is turned into an allow feature policy in the iFrame.

Example:

WA.nav.openCoWebSite('https://www.wikipedia.org/');
// ...
WA.nav.closeCoWebSite();
