How to close an application in Phonegap Apache Cordova ?

I recently made a close application button in my Phonegap application.After searching around and reading a lot about it on Stack Overflow, I did mange to create a satisfactory close button mechanism for my android application

With the help of this article you can show a confirm close dialog to a user.





Step 1. Add a close button in HTML

I have added a jquery button. If you are using something else, just make sure that you have included the onclick.

Step 2. Handle the onclick event in Javascript

The showConfirm function shows a dialog box to the user. When the user selects the yes button, the value of buttonIndex turns to 1 and as a result the navigator.app.exitApp() function is trigerred.

Result:

The end result is a native dialog box as above.
