禁用phoneGap中的后退按钮单击

Question

I'm trying to disable back button press so the app does not close as my app is a single page app..

i read that you need to wait for deviceready event, and if i look at the console im receiving that event. (BUT from another location i suspect its hidden in the templated and cant find out how to apply my functions to that) Received Event: deviceready

problem is that im just not receiving anything and my app just closes when the i press the back button. and i think im receiving the deviceready from somewhere else build in by adobe in the template i used for my app..

so none of the functions are getting fired thats why i tend to believe i need to place this somewhere else

<script type="text/javascript" src="cordova.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript" src="js/index.js"></script>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    app.initialize();
     function onLoad() {
    document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
    alert('gege');
}

// device APIs are available
//
function onDeviceReady() {
    // Register the event listener
    document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
    alert('gege');
}

// Handle the back button
//
function onBackKeyDown() {
alert('backbuttonpressed');
}
    </script>

Try

document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
document.addEventListener("backbutton", onBackKeyDown, false);
app.initialize();

function onDeviceReady(){        

}

function onBackKeyDown(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
}
