Back Button functionality?

[connorprice]

Thanks for responding. I should have been more specific with my question in hindsight. When I say "back button" I'm talking about the physical button on a remote control, like the one found for most Android TV devices. This library linked perfectly with the d-pad and the enter button for the remote that I had and I was wondering if there were any events or links to that back button.

you could listen for changes and call history.pushState, saving the state, and listen for popstate , is this what you want?

if you are using this for a browser based project then there is a small issue where not all keycodes from devices are passed back to the browser this means on some devices you could have limited functionality the best thing todo is test keycodes for diffrent devices the manifecturere should list them if they dont follow default android keycodes

i use this project in a browser basedoption and it does work perfect for what i need but i did find errors in the code passed back my self when it came to some android devices and the xbox browser where very few buttons do actually pass back the buttopn event by the keycode

Depending in which platform you are using, you need to listen (onkeydown) for an event.keyCode of 4, 10009 (for Tizen) and 461 (for webOS), or an event.code of 'Back'. (Also, some platforms will send event.which for the .code, so you need to test for this too).
