auto back of pages on android

[patelbrijeshn]

Hi,

I am facing an issue where, when I go to page B from page A, use back button and then go to page C, page C loads fine and then in a second goes back to the previous page.

both page B and page C links are shown on page A.

Any idea, of what causes this ?

Thanks,
Brijesh

Can you reproduce this in the docs? Can you give a specific example and info on what device/browser you see an issue?

Below are the three page structures.

I have following global settings:
$.mobile.defaultTransition = 'none';
$.extend( $.mobile , {
ajaxFormsEnabled : false,
ajaxLinksEnabled : false,
ajaxEnabled:false,
}

Hi Todd,

If I disable pushState, it seems to solve the problem.
$.mobile.pushStateEnabled = false;

[toddparker]

I expected that was the case. Browsers are a bit inconsistent on how they handle pushState so in these situations, things can get wonky. We recommend disabling this if you run into issues, are using a lot of external links or are building a native app because the URL isn't seen.

Thanks Todd,

Is this something that will be taken a look at for a fix in future releases ?

[toddparker]

We definitely want this to improve, but from what we've found, we're sort of at the mercy of browsers to better standardize their handling of pop state and other factors. The quirks are due to inconsistencies that we can't see and resolve on our end unfortunately but we'll continue to improve this as we go.
