I'm making a little web app with jQuery Mobile and I was to stop the address bar being updated. This is so the back button on phones no longer works and a user cannot jump into the middle of the app via a URL.
I've read the docs but I can't understand which setting I need but I know it needs to go in here:
$(document).on("mobileinit", function() {
    //disable history?
});
                Add this code snippet after app initialize jQuery but before jQuery Mobile is initialized:
<script>
    $(document).on("mobileinit", function () {
        $.mobile.hashListeningEnabled = false;
        $.mobile.pushStateEnabled = false;
        $.mobile.changePage.defaults.changeHash = false;
    });
</script>
It should look like this:
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
    $(document).on("mobileinit", function () {
        $.mobile.hashListeningEnabled = false;
        $.mobile.pushStateEnabled = false;
    });
</script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.2/jquery.mobile-1.4.2.js"></script>
Remember this code MUST execute before jQuery Mobile is initialized or it will not work, but I guess you probably know this.
