Problem with ngCordova's $cordovaInAppBrowser

Hi,

I am using ngCordova's $cordovaInAppBrowser to open Apple Play Store URL. It opens the app store but it does not go into .then. Relevant code:

    $cordovaInAppBrowser.open(mktUrl, '_system', {location: 'yes', clearcache: 'yes', toolbar: 'no'}).
then(function(event) { ¬                            
      console.log("inside then"); ¬                           
      $state.go('odetails');
    }¬

@mktUrl@ is a app store URL for an app.

It does not generate any error. But it just doesn't work. Please help.
