iOS Browsers except Safari Keeps asking camera permission every time I load the page

We are currently developing a qr code scanning system using laravel but when I test it on Chrome or other browser except Safari, it always ask camera permission.
I have already allow camera permission on browser setting on my iPad. Is there other way to permanently allow it or only ask once on Chrome browser like on android that remembers my choice? Or is it possible to do it programmatically like using Javascript?
thank you so much! I really need everyone's help, I couldn't find any related topics on the internet about this 😄

There is no API for the PWA's to change it from "Ask" to "Allow". There is an issue on WebKit around this: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=215884, but what can you do is to change it manually in browser settings, as it was mentioned: https://stackoverflow.com/a/57368061/615393.

How to break out of Twitter in-app browser in Android?

I have a typical modern web-app, regularly shared on Twitter.
I recently noticed that, when opening our web-app in the Twitter internal browser, localstorage is deactivated, which breaks our app.
How could I break out of the Twitter internal browser and open the page in the default Android browser?

I haven't tried this but just a suggestion. You could take a look at this and give it a try.
At the end of the article, it says that the external app won't be invoked if triggered without a user gesture but I believe that the limitation won't be there in case of the In-App browser.

Well, I think it isn't quite easy to say Android via a WebView to open the Chrome Browser as this in-app browser could be a lot different.
What you could try, as mentioned in the article Here is to trigger a click on an anchor which is calling an "pseudo" intent and add the fallback_url .
There isn't much details provided but it could be a possible hack / workaround.
In your HTML
...
And with JS:
$(".open_me").trigger("click");
According to the article
Now the URL will get you to zxing.org if the app could not be found, or the link was triggered from JavaScript without user gesture
(or for other cases where we don’t launch an external application.)
If you're lucky it will open the fallback_url, but as mentioned before it is a WebView which isn't the same as the Chrome Browser, therefore it is possible that nothing happens.

You can use a iFrame in your HTML like this:
<iframe src="url.com" width="900" height=400"></iframe>

Weinre how to add new targets?

Hello I am new to Weinre and I need to debug my website which seems to act strange when opened using an IOS platform.
So I am using Weinre to debug it. I installed the tool and tested it running with the demo targets in the server itself.
Now I need to add my website as a target and run it with an iphon (or ipad) and debug it with Weinre. I don't know how to add my website as a target, I cannot manually add the
<script src="http://123.456.7.89:8080/target/target-script-min.js#anonymous"></script>
script (do not have permission to manually change the page). so How can I do my debugging with Weinre?
Thanks

You can try using a bookmarklet. The main weinre server page actually has a bookmarklet in it, for itself, that you should be able to use directly, if you can figure out how to set up a bookmarklet for your device. This seems to change release-release for mobile browsers, so you might want to do a google search on "bookmarklet" and your device's name or the OS release, to see if anyone has any tips.

Is it possible to open Internet Explorer window from Firefox? [duplicate]

Our Web application is based on IE9, which means only IE9 can open the pages in our site. We'll prevent user to browse our site when their browser is not IE9.
But sometimes we had to send a link to user's email box to complete some actions and they will open the link directly with their default browser, the problem is here, if the default browser is not IE9 then they can't open the link, they have to copy the link to IE9. Our user don't want do this manually, they want open the link in IE9 directly no matter what the default browser is.
I have tried using ActiveXObject, but it only works in IE. I want have a script which can open IE browser in Firefox/Chrome page.

It sounds like you want to have a link in an email that activates a specific program on the user's computer rather than the program that they've identified should be used (e.g., their default browser). I don't believe you can do that.
You can install "protocol handlers" in both Chrome and Safari (I suspect Firefox as well), which would let you send a link like ie://example.com/path/to/app. Your protocol handler would launch IE and take you to the relevant site. (Apple does this with iTunes.) But your users would have to install the handler (and, of course, you'd have to write it).
An easier answer might be to have the users install any of the ubiquitous "open in IE" add-ons/extensions that exist for Chrome, Firefox, etc. They follow the link, then choose "open in IE" from some kind of menu. (If they're using webmail, they may even be able to right-click the link and choose that line item, depending on the extension.)
Side note: Obviously, though, barring it being impossible I'd recommend making your application compatible with Chrome and Firefox.

No you can't do it..
but there is some alternatives:
Install your users IE tab:
FireFox - http://lifehacker.com/135297/internet-explorer-in-a-firefox-tab?tag=softwarewebpublishing,
Chrome - https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hehijbfgiekmjfkfjpbkbammjbdenadd
Use a batch file that will launch your link in explorer.
use this Firefox plugin makes it possible to use (host) ActiveX controls in Firefox - http://code.google.com/p/ff-activex-host/
instead of ActiveX try using Netscape Plugin Application Programming Interface (NPAPI) - a cross-platform plugin architecture used by many web browsers.
Similar as with a batch file, you may create a link file to the page you need using the ".website" file extension with IE, which is configured in windows by default to open with ie. Put it in your webserver public folder and then add a link to that file in your website

You don't have to write code to create a custom protocol handler in Windows. See this page for how to define one in the registry.

You can use User agent switcher for chrome or firefox
For Chrome :

For Firefox :

Enable and Popup blocker in IE

I wrote a scripting logic in using ActiveX. When the application runs it is blocked by popup blocker. When I enabled it works fine, but I want to enable the popupblocker using JavaScript (especially in IE).

Obviously a website cannot modify the popup blocker settings. And that's a good thing.

You should avoid using ActiveX Controls because it is only supported by IE. Trying running your page on Firefox and it won't work.
Now the actual problem -
Firstly you need to understand what ActiveX Objects are used for? They basically allow a web application to interact with the client machine. For example it can use resources on my local hard drive. This is a security risk. So IE gives a warning for the same. You may disable it in your browser by going to Tools-> Internet Options -> Security Tab. Click "Custom Level" and change all the boxes with ActiveX text in it to "Enable".
But it will still show up in your client browsers.
So the point is try finding an alternative for it.
Hope this helps!

You cant. What you could do is have a message on screen which requests the user to turn off the popup blocker .
