    If its for a web app on IOS 7…. no. Lets see what joy IOS 7.1 brings maybe Apple will fix the web app problems……. wouldn’t hold your breath 🙂

    I think this has been a known issue for a while now. You’ve got two options:

    1. Hard-wire your Back buttons.
    2. Tie them to gotopage Javascript functions

    I’m trying to get back from an external webpage.

    doing window.history.back() right now – and of course it fails in iOS7.

    I’d just like to get back to the top level of my webapp – not necessarily the last page.

    If you are just going back to your app you can probably use:
    window.open(“http://www.yourappurl”);

    If you are building a web app that connects to an external URL I don’t think you can go ‘back’ even if it did work as the web app will close and need to be re-opened.

    cincy – that worked. not the best solution (best would be to navigate to the last page) –
    but it’s good enough.

    stickleback – window.history.back() used to work fine in pre-ios7.

    again this is a webapp.
