I hope you can help me with this problem. I have tried EVERYTHING the last 5 days, but I fail every time.
I have buildt a simple app using HTML5, CSS and little bit of Javascript.The app works fine.Than I want a simple banner ad that shows at the bottom of the app.I just can't get it to work. Sometimes a black box shows up at the bottom, that's all, but not ad. I'm not very good with Javascript so the problem is maby with the code, but I've copied most of it from plugin exemple.
Source: https://www.npmjs.com/package/phonegap-admob
I'm using:
- Phonegap 6.1.2 (Build Service)
- admob-phonegap plugin(<plugin name="phonegap-admob" spec="4.2.1" />)
- Other plugins that work fine.
What I need:
- Only a small banner ad at the bottom of the page.
Platform:
- Only Andriod
In my config.xml I have this line:
<plugin name="phonegap-admob" spec="4.2.1" />
In my index.html inside the <script></script> tags, I have this code:
<script>
var isAppForeground = true;
function initAds() {
if (admob) {
var adPublisherIds = {
android : {
banner : "ca-app-pub-1467389904102750/404191XXXX",
}
};
var admobid = (/(android)/i.test(navigator.userAgent)) ? adPublisherIds.android : adPublisherIds.ios;
admob.setOptions({
publisherId: admobid.banner,
interstitialAdId: admobid.interstitial,
});
registerAdEvents();
} else {
alert('AdMobAds plugin not ready');
}
}
function onAdLoaded(e) {
if (isAppForeground) {
if (e.adType === admob.AD_TYPE.INTERSTITIAL) {
console.log("An interstitial has been loaded and autoshown. If you want to load the interstitial first and show it later, set 'autoShowInterstitial: false' in admob.setOptions() and call 'admob.showInterstitialAd();' here");
} else if (e.adType === admob.AD_TYPE_BANNER) {
console.log("New banner received");
}
}
}
function onPause() {
if (isAppForeground) {
admob.destroyBannerView();
isAppForeground = false;
}
}
function onResume() {
if (!isAppForeground) {
setTimeout(admob.createBannerView, 1);
setTimeout(admob.requestInterstitialAd, 1);
isAppForeground = true;
}
}
// optional, in case respond to events
function registerAdEvents() {
document.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdLoaded, onAdLoaded);
document.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdFailedToLoad, function (e) {});
document.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdOpened, function (e) {});
document.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdClosed, function (e) {});
document.addEventListener(admob.events.onAdLeftApplication, function (e) {});
document.addEventListener("pause", onPause, false);
document.addEventListener("resume", onResume, false);
}
function onDeviceReady() {
document.removeEventListener('deviceready', onDeviceReady, false);
initAds();
// display a banner at startup
admob.createBannerView();
}
document.addEventListener("deviceready", onDeviceReady, false);
</script>
I hope someone can help me. Thank you so much
Allright, the whole code was correct. The problem was just that I didn't link to Cordova in the Script tag. I read it somewhere that you didn't need it and Phonegap / Cordova would include it automatically. It was all that was needed. Do you want Admob to be displayed (and probably many other plugins), please include
<script type = "text / javascript" src = "cordova.js"> </script>.
How do you definitively detect whether or not the user has pressed the back button in the browser?
How do you enforce the use of an in-page back button inside a single page web application using a #URL system?
Why on earth don't browser back buttons fire their own events!?
(Note: As per Sharky's feedback, I've included code to detect backspaces)
So, I've seen these questions frequently on SO, and have recently run into the issue of controlling back button functionality myself. After a few days of searching for the best solution for my application (Single-Page with Hash Navigation), I've come up with a simple, cross-browser, library-less system for detecting the back button.
Most people recommend using:
window.onhashchange = function() {
//blah blah blah
}
However, this function will also be called when a user uses on in-page element that changes the location hash. Not the best user experience when your user clicks and the page goes backwards or forwards.
To give you a general outline of my system, I'm filling up an array with previous hashes as my user moves through the interface. It looks something like this:
function updateHistory(curr) {
window.location.lasthash.push(window.location.hash);
window.location.hash = curr;
}
Pretty straight forward. I do this to ensure cross-browser support, as well as support for older browsers. Simply pass the new hash to the function, and it'll store it for you and then change the hash (which is then put into the browser's history).
I also utilise an in-page back button that moves the user between pages using the lasthash array. It looks like this:
function goBack() {
window.location.hash = window.location.lasthash[window.location.lasthash.length-1];
//blah blah blah
window.location.lasthash.pop();
}
So this will move the user back to the last hash, and remove that last hash from the array (I have no forward button right now).
So. How do I detect whether or not a user has used my in-page back button, or the browser button?
At first I looked at window.onbeforeunload, but to no avail - that is only called if the user is going to change pages. This does not happen in a single-page-application using hash navigation.
So, after some more digging, I saw recommendations for trying to set a flag variable. The issue with this in my case, is that I would try to set it, but as everything is asynchronous, it wouldn't always be set in time for the if statement in the hash change. .onMouseDown wasn't always called in click, and adding it to an onclick wouldn't ever trigger it fast enough.
This is when I started to look at the difference between document, and window. My final solution was to set the flag using document.onmouseover, and disable it using document.onmouseleave.
What happens is that while the user's mouse is inside the document area (read: the rendered page, but excluding the browser frame), my boolean is set to true. As soon as the mouse leaves the document area, the boolean flips to false.
This way, I can change my window.onhashchange to:
window.onhashchange = function() {
if (window.innerDocClick) {
window.innerDocClick = false;
} else {
if (window.location.hash != '#undefined') {
goBack();
} else {
history.pushState("", document.title, window.location.pathname);
location.reload();
}
}
}
You'll note the check for #undefined. This is because if there is no history available in my array, it returns undefined. I use this to ask the user if they want to leave using a window.onbeforeunload event.
So, in short, and for people that aren't necessarily using an in-page back button or an array to store the history:
document.onmouseover = function() {
//User's mouse is inside the page.
window.innerDocClick = true;
}
document.onmouseleave = function() {
//User's mouse has left the page.
window.innerDocClick = false;
}
window.onhashchange = function() {
if (window.innerDocClick) {
//Your own in-page mechanism triggered the hash change
} else {
//Browser back button was clicked
}
}
And there you have it. a simple, three-part way to detect back button usage vs in-page elements with regards to hash navigation.
EDIT:
To ensure that the user doesn't use backspace to trigger the back event, you can also include the following (Thanks to #thetoolman on this Question):
$(function(){
/*
* this swallows backspace keys on any non-input element.
* stops backspace -> back
*/
var rx = /INPUT|SELECT|TEXTAREA/i;
$(document).bind("keydown keypress", function(e){
if( e.which == 8 ){ // 8 == backspace
if(!rx.test(e.target.tagName) || e.target.disabled || e.target.readOnly ){
e.preventDefault();
}
}
});
});
You can try popstate event handler, e.g:
window.addEventListener('popstate', function(event) {
// The popstate event is fired each time when the current history entry changes.
var r = confirm("You pressed a Back button! Are you sure?!");
if (r == true) {
// Call Back button programmatically as per user confirmation.
history.back();
// Uncomment below line to redirect to the previous page instead.
// window.location = document.referrer // Note: IE11 is not supporting this.
} else {
// Stay on the current page.
history.pushState(null, null, window.location.pathname);
}
history.pushState(null, null, window.location.pathname);
}, false);
Note: For the best results, you should load this code only on specific pages where you want to implement the logic to avoid any other unexpected issues.
The popstate event is fired each time when the current history entry changes (user navigates to a new state). That happens when user clicks on browser's Back/Forward buttons or when history.back(), history.forward(), history.go() methods are programatically called.
The event.state is property of the event is equal to the history state object.
For jQuery syntax, wrap it around (to add even listener after document is ready):
(function($) {
// Above code here.
})(jQuery);
See also: window.onpopstate on page load
See also the examples on Single-Page Apps and HTML5 pushState page:
<script>
// jQuery
$(window).on('popstate', function (e) {
var state = e.originalEvent.state;
if (state !== null) {
//load content with ajax
}
});
// Vanilla javascript
window.addEventListener('popstate', function (e) {
var state = e.state;
if (state !== null) {
//load content with ajax
}
});
</script>
This should be compatible with Chrome 5+, Firefox 4+, IE 10+, Safari 6+, Opera 11.5+ and similar.
if (window.performance && window.performance.navigation.type == window.performance.navigation.TYPE_BACK_FORWARD) {
alert('hello world');
}
This is the only one solution that worked for me (it's not a onepage website).
It's working with Chrome, Firefox and Safari.
I had been struggling with this requirement for quite a while and took some of the solutions above to implement it. However, I stumbled upon an observation and it seems to work across Chrome, Firefox and Safari browsers + Android and iPhone
On page load:
window.history.pushState({page: 1}, "", "");
window.onpopstate = function(event) {
// "event" object seems to contain value only when the back button is clicked
// and if the pop state event fires due to clicks on a button
// or a link it comes up as "undefined"
if(event){
// Code to handle back button or prevent from navigation
}
else{
// Continue user action through link or button
}
}
Let me know if this helps. If am missing something, I will be happy to understand.
In javascript, navigation type 2 means browser's back or forward button clicked and the browser is actually taking content from cache.
if(performance.navigation.type == 2)
{
//Do your code here
}
Correct answer is already there to answer the question. I want to mention new JavaScript API PerformanceNavigationTiming, it's replacing deprecated performance.navigation.
Following code will log in console "back_forward" if user landed on your page using back or forward button. Take a look at compatibility table before using it in your project.
var perfEntries = performance.getEntriesByType("navigation");
for (var i = 0; i < perfEntries.length; i++) {
console.log(perfEntries[i].type);
}
This will definitely work (For detecting back button click)
$(window).on('popstate', function(event) {
alert("pop");
});
My variant:
const inFromBack = performance && performance.getEntriesByType( 'navigation' ).map( nav => nav.type ).includes( 'back_forward' )

See this:
history.pushState(null, null, location.href);
window.onpopstate = function () {
history.go(1);
};
it works fine...
I was able to use some of the answers in this thread and others to get it working in IE and Chrome/Edge. history.pushState for me wasn't supported in IE11.
if (history.pushState) {
//Chrome and modern browsers
history.pushState(null, document.title, location.href);
window.addEventListener('popstate', function (event) {
history.pushState(null, document.title, location.href);
});
}
else {
//IE
history.forward();
}
A full-fledged component can be implemented only if you redefine the API (change the methods of object ' history ')
I will share the class just written.

Here's my take at it. The assumption is, when the URL changes but there has no click within the document detected, it's a browser back (yes, or forward). A users click is reset after 2 seconds to make this work on pages that load content via Ajax:
(function(window, $) {
var anyClick, consoleLog, debug, delay;
delay = function(sec, func) {
return setTimeout(func, sec * 1000);
};
debug = true;
anyClick = false;
consoleLog = function(type, message) {
if (debug) {
return console[type](message);
}
};
$(window.document).click(function() {
anyClick = true;
consoleLog("info", "clicked");
return delay(2, function() {
consoleLog("info", "reset click state");
return anyClick = false;
});
});
return window.addEventListener("popstate", function(e) {
if (anyClick !== true) {
consoleLog("info", "Back clicked");
return window.dataLayer.push({
event: 'analyticsEvent',
eventCategory: 'test',
eventAction: 'test'
});
}
});
})(window, jQuery);
The document.mouseover does not work for IE and FireFox.
However I have tried this :
$(document).ready(function () {
setInterval(function () {
var $sample = $("body");
if ($sample.is(":hover")) {
window.innerDocClick = true;
} else {
window.innerDocClick = false;
}
});
});
window.onhashchange = function () {
if (window.innerDocClick) {
//Your own in-page mechanism triggered the hash change
} else {
//Browser back or forward button was pressed
}
};
This works for Chrome and IE and not FireFox. Still working to get FireFox right. Any easy way on detecting Browser back/forward button click are welcome, not particularly in JQuery but also AngularJS or plain Javascript.
I solved it by keeping track of the original event that triggered the hashchange (be it a swipe, a click or a wheel), so that the event wouldn't be mistaken for a simple landing-on-page, and using an additional flag in each of my event bindings. The browser won't set the flag again to false when hitting the back button:
var evt = null,
canGoBackToThePast = true;
$('#next-slide').on('click touch', function(e) {
evt = e;
canGobackToThePast = false;
// your logic (remember to set the 'canGoBackToThePast' flag back to 'true' at the end of it)
}
<input style="display:none" id="__pageLoaded" value=""/>
$(document).ready(function () {
if ($("#__pageLoaded").val() != 1) {
$("#__pageLoaded").val(1);
} else {
shared.isBackLoad = true;
$("#__pageLoaded").val(1);
// Call any function that handles your back event
}
});
The above code worked for me. On mobile browsers, when the user clicked on the back button, we wanted to restore the page state as per his previous visit.
Solution for Kotlin/JS (React):
import org.w3c.dom.events.Event
import kotlin.browser.document
import kotlin.browser.window
...
override fun componentDidMount() {
window.history.pushState(null, document.title, window.location.href)
window.addEventListener("popstate", actionHandler)
}
...
val actionHandler: (Event?) -> Unit = {
window.history.pushState(
null,
document.title,
window.location.href
)
// add your actions here
}
Was looking for a solution for this issue and put together a simple skeleton test html based on a few answers here and the MDN Web Doc pages for History.pushState() and WindowEventHandlers.onpopstate.
The following HTML and JavaScript is easy enough to copy and paste and test.
Works with back and forward browser buttons, shortcut keys, adds a change to the URL (which is important in some cases).
Simply enough to add to existing code key points and should be expandable too.
<html>
<body>
<div id="p1">Option 1</div>
<div id="p2">Option 2</div>
<div id="p3">Option 3</div>
<div id="p4">Option 4</div>
<div id="c"></div>
<script>
var chg={
set:function(str){
var d=document.getElementById("c");
d.textContent=str;
},
go:function(e){
var s={"p":this.id};
chg.set(s.p);
hstry.add(s);
}
};
var hstry={
add:function(s){
var u=new URL(window.location);
u.searchParams.set("x",s.p);
window.history.pushState(s,"",u);
},
adjust:function(state){
if(state.p){
chg.set(state.p);
}
}
};
window.onpopstate=function(e){
console.log("popstate, e.state:["+ JSON.stringify(e.state) +"]");
hstry.adjust(e.state);
}
window.onload=function(){
var i,d,a=["p1","p2","p3","p4"];
for(i=0;i<a.length;i++){
d=document.getElementById(a[i]);
d.addEventListener("click",chg.go,false);
}
}
</script>
</body>
</html>
browser will emit popstate event if you navigate through your app with calling
window.history.pushState({},'','/to')
If you manually enter the addresses into the address bar and click on the back button, popstate event will NOT be fired.
If you navigate in your app with this simplified function
const navigate = (to) => {
window.history.pushState({}, ",", to);
};
then this will work
const handlePopstate = () => {
console.log("popped");
};
window.addEventListener("popstate", handlePopstate);
I tried the above options but none of them is working for me. Here is the solution
if(window.event)
{
if(window.event.clientX < 40 && window.event.clientY < 0)
{
alert("Browser back button is clicked...");
}
else
{
alert("Browser refresh button is clicked...");
}
}
