how to Trigger click on back button by clicking on another button?

[Jackson]

Hi,

I’m trying to trigger the back button by clicking on another button.

I’m simplly using jQuery click function to do this.

issue that i have is that my code only works in browsers but when I create a phonegap APP, the code doesn’t work at all!

This is my code:

document.addEventListener("show", function(event){
 
 
if(event.target.id=='page2') {


 $(".bak").on('click', function(){
 
/*$( ".back-button" ).trigger( "click" );*/

$('#backing').click();
 
}); 

   }
   
});

and this is my Back button:

<ons-back-button id="backing">Back</ons-back-button>

and finally this is my button that I click on to trigger the back button:

<img class="bak" width="70%" src="back-btn.png" style="float:left;">


Could someone please advise on this issue?


Thanks in advance.

@Jackson All the back button is doing is issuing the poppage command for your navigator. You can simply call:

myNavigator.popPage();

And get the same effect.

More info can be found in the docs here:

https://onsen.io/v2/docs/js/navigation.html

If you need more control, then referencing the docs here:

https://onsen.io/v2/docs/js/ons-back-button.html

Shows that you can specify your own function for the button to call that you can also have your other button call.
