Using the android backbutton with Dojomobile and phonegap in worklight


Im creating an app (rather big one) with Worklight. When im testing the app in an android phone and press the backbutton it closes the app.. now i want it to go back one page. Right now the page navigation is with dojox mobile implemented system. this way:

<button data-dojo-type="dojox.mobile.ToolBarButton" data-dojo-props="transition:'fade',dir:'1',moveTo:'Contact'" class="buttonHem" style="color:black; font-size:1em;">Kontakta Oss</button>

is there a way to use the android backbutton without having to redo everything?

we have deadline in 2 weeks so there is really no time to redo the app with jquery mobile..

Answers will be appreciated.


Solution

  • If you're talking about a hardware Android back button you have a WL API to override it's behaviour. WL.App.overrideBackButton(function() { doSomething }); and WL.App.resetBackButton();
