Question

I got a navigation controller that has a “Done” button. When the user is finished with the form, they press “Done” and I want that view popped off the stack and back at the main menu.

Here is the code I got so far:

UIBarButtonItem *anotherButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Done" 
                                                                  style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain 
                                                                 target:self 
                                                                 action:[self.navigationController popToViewController:[self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:1] animated:YES]];          
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = anotherButton;

Please help! Thank you

1) Define new method of the class that corresponds to self. Fro example,

- (void)closeView
{
    [self.navigationController popToViewController:[self.navigationController.viewControllers objectAtIndex:1] animated:YES];
}

2) Set appropriate selector when creating your button:

UIBarButtonItem *anotherButton = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithTitle:@"Done" 
                                                              style:UIBarButtonItemStylePlain 
                                                             target:self 
                                                             action:@selector(closeView)];          
self.navigationItem.rightBarButtonItem = anotherButton;
[anotherButton release]; // and don't forget to clear memory
