app.navigate() in data-before-show

[Robby Parker]

I can't seem to get app.navigate to switch to a local view. No errors in console.

Please tell me why this simple example doesn't work.

HTML:

<div data-role="view" data-layout="default" id="journalDefault" data-before-show="doesNeedLogin">
    Journal Entries
</div>

<div data-role="view" data-layout="default" id="journalAddNew">
    Add Entry. Get ID from Listview.
</div>

<div data-role="view" data-layout="default" id="journalLogin">
    Need to login.
</div>

JS:

function doesNeedLogin(e)
{
    var isLoggedIn = false;

    if (isLoggedIn)
    {
        alert("Logged In");
    }
    else
    {
        alert("Not logged in");

        //show them login view
        app.navigate("#journalLogin");
    }
}

Hi,

you need to call prevent default - please check the snippet in the documentation.
