Question

I have looked at several tutorials and different posts and can’t seem to figure this out. I am simply trying to create a back button to take me back to a view where I was before. In the IB I create the button and link it to my backButton method. However, when I try to use it in the App I can’t get it to work. Do I have to push it on the stack first? Any suggestions?

-(void)backButton:(id)sender{
[self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
}

Here is the code where I navigate from one view into another: Map is a view I use.

- (void) buttonClicked:(id)sender
{
UIButton *selectedButton = (UIButton *)sender;
int tempButtonTag = selectedButton.tag;
Map *map =[[Map alloc] initWithNibName:nil bundle:nil];
NSMutableString *tempID = [buttonIDArray objectAtIndex:tempButtonTag];
NSMutableString *tempType = [buttonTypeArray objectAtIndex:tempButtonTag];

[map setXmlID:tempID];
[map setXmlType:tempType];

buttonIDArray = nil;
buttonTypeArray = nil;

[buttonIDArray release];
[buttonTypeArray release];


[self presentModalViewController:map animated:YES];



}

Answer 1

The opposite of presentModalViewController is dismissModalViewController.

The opposite of pushViewController is popViewController.

You are mixing these up…
