    text
    copied!<p>I am using PhoneGap 1.5.0, jQuery 1.7.1 and jQuery mobile 1.0.1 and trying to override the backbutton in Android as stated <a href="http://wiki.phonegap.com/w/page/29494136/Android%20Back%20Button%20Handler" rel="nofollow noreferrer">here</a> or <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8602722/phonegap-android-back-button-close-app-with-back-button-on-homepage">here</a>. </p> <pre><code>document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false); // PhoneGap loaded function onDeviceReady() { console.log("PhoneGap Ready!"); // waiting for button document.addEventListener("backbutton", handleBackButton, false); } // handle the back button function handleBackButton() { console.log("Back Button Pressed!"); navigator.app.exitApp(); } </code></pre> <p>But it only works on the first page of my app. After changing to a different page the backbutton does nothing at all. The app consists of a tabview like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;body&gt; &lt;div data-role="page" id="pilotTab"&gt; &lt;div data-role="header"&gt; &lt;h1&gt;Pilot&lt;/h1&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div data-role="content" id="pilotContent"&gt; content be here ;) &lt;/div&gt; &lt;div data-role="footer" data-position="fixed"&gt; &lt;div data-role="navbar"&gt; &lt;ul&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="pilotTab.html" data-transition="none"&gt;Lotse&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="bookingTab.html" data-transition="none"&gt;Verkehr&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;li&gt;&lt;a href="mainListTab.html" data-transition="none"&gt;B&amp;ouml;rt&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/li&gt; &lt;/ul&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- /navbar --&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;!-- /footer --&gt; &lt;/div&gt; </code></pre> <p></p> <p>Is it a stupid mistake or is there something special I have to consider to make it work properly? Thanks in advance.</p>
