Why is #Push not happening inside an iframe? - vaadin

I have a Vaadin 14 app that relies heavily on Push and works perfectly in normal browser tabs.
When the same URL is embedded in an iframe, the Push do not seem to happen. Nothing at all changes on the iframed page. I am using the automatic Push mode.
I simply embedded the URL inside an iframe using https://www.iframe-generator.com/ and used their preview mode. The page loads but no subsequent change happens.

How does iOS 13 Safari link preview work?

In iOS 13 Safari, when you long press on a link, you see a preview of the linked page, along with some menu items. If you tap the preview, you navigate to that page.
Now, I see how to intervene in the long-press-and-preview process. This used to be peek-and-pop, but in iOS 13 that's deprecated and we're supposed to use func webView(_:contextMenuConfigurationForElement:) and so forth. Fine, but how would I imitate what Safari does?
The problem is that as my preview provider I have to supply a view controller. So I'm going to need a different view controller with a web view showing the linked page. Okay, I can do that. But then when the user taps the preview to dismiss it, I want to respond by loading the same linked page into my real web view.
But that's the problem. That loading takes time. In Safari, by contrast, when you tap the preview, boom, there's the same page already loaded. How do they do that? How would I do the same thing? How can I load the page into a different view controller, cache it, and communicate that cached page back to my real web view?

Different behaviour in WKWebview and Safari regarding CSS

There seem te be some subtle differences in the Implementation or configuration between WBWebView and Safari (and SFSafariViewController) that renders a part of the Website I want to display unusable.
Here is what I am trying to do:
Basically all that is needed is an "App" that just opens a specific website in fullscreen mode, so no chrome, URLs or additional navigaton buttons are present. The Website works fine on Safari on iOS (and every other (modern) browser on desktop or mobile) but the menu does not when embedded in the App.
All I did was creating a new single view Application in Xcode, drop in a WKWebView and have it load the URL. The part of the page not working is this menu component that is used throughout the site: http://tympanus.net/codrops/2013/04/19/responsive-multi-level-menu/ So basically the user has no way to navigate. While debugging the website it seems like when I push the menu button the menu does not expand like it should because the changed css classes dont get picked up correctly. If I manually toggle the css classes on the menu-element it gets displayed correctly. It makes me wonder if there are some additonal constraints related to WKWebView?
Can anyone tell me if there are any settings or configurations I can alter that allow the website in WKWebView to behave exactly the same as it would under Safari?
As far as I understand SFSafariViewController I always get the browser toolbar and navigational elements which I dont want to have in the app, so that is not an option- or is there a way to get rid of that?
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated :)

Putting a "Like" button in an iOS App, iFrame?

Within my native iOS app i have an iFrame that loads an external webpage. Putting a Like button on that page works fine when it's loaded from Safari etc., but when the page is loaded within the App, the Like button just doesn't appear.
Is this not possible?

UIWebView goBack() issues in iOS 5

I'm displaying a UIWebView to display a mobile website. The website uses ajax and internal hash navigation. I have a back button to go back in history.
It works fine on iOS 4 and on iOS for the first time after application launch.
After leaving the UIWebView and coming back to it, the back button does not work properly because of the caching.
Any ideas how we can get the back functionality/history keeping working in iOS5? We have tried several things on the web page, and natively, but no success.
Our current status is that clicking the back button will return to the initial page on the UIWebView, but jump over the intermediate pages.

iPad Home Screen App refreshes on every open

I'm writing a web app for the iPad using HTML5 and SenchaTouch. The app uses cache manifest to function offline. Once it has been added in the home screen and opened without Safari, it will refresh itself every time it is opened, even if just navigating to the home screen and back. The desired behavior is to leave the app, do something else, and then come back to the app with everything untouched.
An example of a similar app that displays the same (undesired) behavior can be found here: http://ignitedmediadesign.com/WebApp/index.html
I've read that using a cache manifest should have solved this problem on iPhone ( http://www.stevesouders.com/blog/2011/06/28/lack-of-caching-for-iphone-home-screen-apps/ ), but doesn't seem to have done the trick for either iPhone or iPad.
Is there another way to fix this? Is there some secret to cache manifest files that stops this that I may have missed?
I'm under the impression this is simply the nature of the "home screen" web apps that operate outside of normal Safari. I have an app that operates just fine in Safari with some minimal state saving, but the blasted non-Safari version refreshes every time. EDIT: Even the showcased O’Reilly example that uses a cache manifest reloads every time when added to the home screen.
You may want to look into creating "routes" (URL fragments) that point to a controller/action pair. Look into the MVC PhoneGap example (If not using PhoneGap, you can scroll past all of that stuff and implement your own data model and store). Also see this Sencha Touch MVC tutorial.
Also, most of the rendered sencha touch components seem to maintain state between changes of the active item. For example. I have a main TabPanel that contains all sub panels. When switching between tabs on the main TabPanel's TabBar, each sub panel maintains its rendering, unless I've set a listener or controller action to do otherwise.
Hope this helps.
