Hi everybody,
I am developping an iphone version of a site atm, I've tried both CiUI
and WebApp.net and CiUI is a lot more suitable for what I need.
However, I have absolutely no javascript knowledge/experience and
there is a little thing that I am trying to add: a Home button/link on
all the pages except the Home page itself. I might even replace the
whole header with a clickable logo that sends back to the Home page.
The idea is that no matter what page the user is on, if he click the
home link there is a slide right (like when clicking the Back button)
once and the home page appears.
Can you tell me how to do this please?

what i did was what you suggest - include a link to the home page in
the header. you won't get the animation that way, however, and the
whole page will refresh. so it's not ideal.

it's a good feature request though. we could add another annotation,
maybe go_home, which would animate to the left, reset current state
and load the page you specify in href attribute.

go ahead and file a bug here and mark it as enhancement, if you like:

I thought of the Go Home link that would reload the whole page but
when I tried it I realised it inconsistant. When you get to a page
with an effect, a user would expect to go back the same way he came
(at least I would)..
So for now we decided we are going to sacrifice all the effects to
release a clean version and then add the effects later.
Anyway thanks for your answer. I added this on the link you gave me
but didn't find how to mark it as an enhancement..
