If you cancel a native WebPopup before it loads then try to load a new webpopup, nothing appears (black). This is a major issue as there is no way to tell if the webpopup has loaded properly, and is particularly bad on low or intermittent signal.
Also, the webpopup flashes until the page is fully loaded which looks very unprofessional.
My app is 99% ready for release except for these problems and after weeks of development I’m anxious to get it out there. Would be happy to pay a bit extra to get these problems looked at immediately.

I logged as a bug a few weeks ago, it is an issue as makes it impossible to use the Webpopup as people will often want to cancel and it trashes it for subsequent uses in an app session.

Put an example in with bug 5609 on iOS. Unfortunately on iOS device now so cant post Quite simple to reproduce, have a screen with a Webpopup that covers the screen partially and provide a button with code that cancels the Webpopup using the native functionality and click cancel before it’s finished downloading a page, then it starts misbehaving. If you leave to finish downloading everything is fine.

Set the URL in main.lua to something that takes a little while to load
Compile for Xcode and ensure the device is iPhone
Click the button to open the webpopup, then while it’s still loading click the back button. Now click the button again to open the webpopup…the popup never appears.
(Note: The tutorial doesn’t work in iPhone4 because the back button is not displayed so in Xcode make sure you have the device set to iPhone.)
My App is 100% ready to submit to the apple store as soon as this and the flashing issue are resolved. I’m hesitant to submit something with bugs in it as it would no doubt affect my applications rating on the store. Particularly as competing apps do not have this issue.
The WebPopup itself needs a complete overhaul as unlike all other SDKs I can find which show a webpage loading (with no flashing), the WebPopup with Corona basically loads most of the webpage behind a loading screen before displaying it…this suggests to me that the flashing issues while pages are loading are very bad early on so the Corona developers decided to display a loading screen in front of it…I may be wrong here. Either way please please please put this as a priority particularly above any Android issues as surely getting native functionality working properly on iPhone should take precedence!!
Will post some screens of my app soon

there’r 3 buttons on screen,every button will open a webpopup with a url.
if I press no.1 button, before the web page show and press no.2 button,
it will give me a black screen.
