This jQuery plugin will stop links from leaving full screen mode on iOS devices. Other side effects may be included.

$(function() {
	$.stayInWebApp();
});

This use only links with the class stay.

$(function() {
	$.stayInWebApp('a.stay');
});

Full links (starting with http) will still open in Safari, as well as links with target="_blank".

To prevent an absolute link from opening in safari, add its domain to the absToStay array property of the options object like this:

$(function() {
	var options = {
		selector: "a.stay",
		absToStay: Array("google.com","test.com","cats"), //allow google.com, test.com, and urls containing the word cats to stay.
	};
	$.stayInWebApp(options);
});

This can help if you have multiple subdomains eg, test.com, sub.test.com, othersub.test.com. All can be allowed by adding test.com to the array.
