Implementation

The following code adds a click event listener. When a click event occurs, the Hello Tizen text changes into the Hi Gear text.

textbox.addEventListener('click', function() 
{
   var box = document.getElementById('content_text');
   if (box.innerHTML === 'Hello Tizen') 
   {
      box.innerHTML = "Hi Gear";
   } 
   else 
   {
      box.innerHTML = "Hello Tizen";
   }
});

The following code adds a hardware event listener. When the back button is pressed, the application is terminated.

document.addEventListener('tizenhwkey', function(e) 
{
   if (e.keyName === 'back') 
   {
      try 
      {
         tizen.application.getCurrentApplication().exit();
      } 
      catch (ignore) {}
   }
});
