Capturing Back Button in Sencha Touch

[Allister]

Does anyone have any code example of how to do this. I would like to
use the hardware back button to go back in the app rather than it go
to the homescreen as it currently wants to.

It needs to work for Android.

Thanks
Allister

Yes - if the app launches you into a browser webpage, then the back
button takes you either back in the browaer or back into the app. But,
if you stay within the app itself, the back button will take you out
of the app to the device home screen.

I was wanting to capture the back button to go back to the previous
app screen or at least the app splash page.

i think there is a way to do this via PhoneGap API docs 

i dont remember but i had come across it sometime earlier.

Have you tried registering an event listener for the "backbutton"?

Hi Simon - thanks for the note.

I had found this, but when I tested it, the back button didn't do
anything because I don't have any divs to jump to. I couldn't tell if
the issue was that it just wasn't capturing the back button or the
fact that we are using a completely different architecture (Sencha) as
the code did not produce any errors.

Have you got it to work in sencha and, if so, do you have some example
code?

Thanks
Allister

No, I haven't used Sencha for anything big yet so I'm not sure what to tell you. Although I'm sure if you register for the backbutton event you would be able to call the proper Sencha code in that event listener to give you your back button functionality.
