I wish to put a CLOSE button on the app which will close the app and preferably also not leave it running in background (on iOS v4 and above).

I can make an OnClick Javascript to do a

close();

but this does not appear graceful. that is in the Test Center, when pressed, it crashes the entire MobiOne environment.

suggestions?

thanks

uncool!

Will investigate and discuss w/ dev team.

For clarification are you seeking to close an iOS app or a webapp? I am assuming you are developing an iOS app.

After more investigation I found that exiting app in iOS is considered bad form. See this apple technote:
https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/#qa/qa1561/_index.html

Regarding your use of window.close(), I have replicated a crash scenario and we are investigating now.

yes – I mean in closing an iOS App. However closing a web app is also of interest.
Interesting, because if you don’t close the app (as Apple suggests), then it stays resident.
In IOS v4+, you can find it still active if you double click the main hardware button.

thank you for your reply..
