It would seem that the <a href="event is not working on the ipad. I found another reference in the forum, but no solution was delivered.
My objective is to be able to link to a scene from within the textfield using the very familiar html anchor and standard blue link text, but alas, safari states "cannot open the page because the address is invalid"
Code
<action name="box6">
loadscene(scene_Benjasiri_Park_2, null, MERGE, BLEND(1));
plugin[panoBox].selectitem(Benjasiri Park);
</action>
....
<data name="text_benjasiri">
....
<a href="event:set(view.fovmin,10); _window_hide(win1); looktohotspot(benjasiri, 10, smooth(100,50,50)); box6(); ">View Park</a>
</data>
....
