三星智能电视应用浏览历史记录

Question

i'm trying to emulate the browser back button when clicking samsung smartTV remote control return button, my application is a web based application using angularjs framework.

when i executed this:

case tvKey.KEY_RETURN:
        alert("RETURN");
        widgetAPI.blockNavigation(event);
        console.log(window.history.length);
        break;

it gives "1" in the console log, and i couldn't go back to the previous page, does this means that the samsung smart tv does not store URLs in history? and is there any other way in going back to previous pages ?

Answer 1

Samsung Browser does store the history and to Go back you actually have to use this code

 case tvKey.KEY_RETURN:
            alert("RETURN");
            widgetAPI.blockNavigation(event);
            window.history.back();
            break;

This will work fine until you reach the Ist page from where you started

Answer 2

If you want use "go back", you may fill and use own history array like this answer:
