Question

I put several ApplicationBars in in the App.xaml because I want to display different ApplicationBar for different pivot pages. However, how do I perform an navigation action using the ApplicationBarIconButton? Because when I put the Navigation code in App.xaml.cs. Visual Studio gives me an error which says “An object reference is required for non-static field, method or property “System.Windows.Navigation.NavigationService.Navigate(System.Uri)”.

Help please.

You can obtain the app’s frame’s NavigationService instance.

(Application.Current.RootVisual as PhoneApplicationFrame).Navigate();
