I'm trying to use pageshow
event on safari (iphone) to fix some problems with back button cache. But it seems to work only one time when using back button.
I have this handler on page A
:
window.addEventListener("pageshow", function () {
alert("pageshow");
});
Then i go to page B
and go back to A
- everything works fine. But when I go to page B
again and go back to A
again, then nothing happens.
example: go to this fiddle: https://jsfiddle.net/y278q8q0/, then navigate to any other page and play with back and forward buttons. The event will fire only once.
That how it looks on iphone 6 with ios 8.4: https://vid.me/5WPe

question was marked as a duplicate of this one: 'pageshow' is not received when pressing "back" button on Safari on *IPad"
It's hard to say if those problems have the same cause. In my case event always fires once at the beginning. Also I tried to implement all non-jquery solutions from mentioned question and none of them is working for me.
