Hi,
I'm stuck on an issue and I can't figure out what to do. I have a
standard albums / images setup, ajax-ed, with transitions between
albums and images, and a working back button. However, I'm not sure
whether to have the transitions when the back-button is pressed /
change of hash:
Argument for:
- When the back-button is pressed, the transitions are clearly
"reverse" transitions and so makes it clear to the user they are
indeed going back exactly the way they came
Argument against:
- If they are coming directly from a bookmark or from a search engine,
they will see the intermediate pages and transitions. For example, if
they go straight to
/#/album-name/photo-name/
Then in fact they will see the transitions /#/ -> /#/album-name/ -
> /#/album-name/photo-name/
Which might be quite confusing if they were expecting to go straight
to the photo.
I wonder what people think is the best option...?
Michal.
