Question regarding ViewStack

[bitwyse]

Hi All,

I am having an issue with the ViewStack when the user clicks the back button.
The browser takes them back a page however, my Flex application doesn't
recognize the change thus none of my links work on the previous page. Let me
give an example as that sounds confusing.

The user is viewing a page in my application. Lets call it page one. On page
one the user can click a link to go to page 2. Now the user is viewing page 2
and clicks the back button to go back to page 1. For some reason the link to
page 2 no longer works. I have found that if I go back to page 1 by using
something other than the back button say a flex button, then the links on page
2 will work. Below is some sample code of how I am working with the ViewStack
Links and Buttons . . .

Thanks for any help you can offer .. . ..




private function showPage( pageNumber : Number ) : void
{
switch( pageNumber )
{
case (1) :
model.workflowState = ModelLocator.PAGE_1;
break;
case (2) :
model.workflowState = ModelLocator.PAGE_2;
break;
case (3) :
model.workflowState = ModelLocator.PAGE_3;
break;
}
}

public function getView( workflowState : Number ) : Container
{
switch( workflowState )
{
case ( ModelLocator.PAGE_1 ) :
return somePage1;

case ( ModelLocator.PAGE_2 ) :
return somePage2;

case ( ModelLocator.PAGE_3 ) :
return somePage3;
}

return pageError;
}

<mx:ViewStack id="appView" width="100%" height="100%"
selectedChild="{getView( model.workflowState )}"
historyManagementEnabled="true">
<view:Page1 id="somePage1" />
<view:Page2 id="somePage2" />
<view:Page3 id="somePage3" />
</mx:ViewStack>


<mx:Text styleName="linkText" text="Link to Page 2" mouseChildren="false"
buttonMode="true" useHandCursor="true" click="showPage(2)"/>
<mx:Button label="Go to Page 1" click = "showPage(1)"/>
