I have designed a small app in angular JS. Where I have various menus on left. I am facing an issue when I click on backspace button. When I click on backspace button it comes to 

$rootScope.$on('$routeChangeSuccess',function(){
// here i am checking the user is logged in or not
}

My question is why application changes the route when I click on back space button?

I have configured the routeProvider correctly. So any one can please help me out.

    Backspace in many browsers is used to go back one page so it is probably changing your route. You can prevent default on events if you can capture them. – shaunhusain Mar 22 '14 at 21:24
  • thanks for a quick reply. I am using chrome browser. i have figured it out that. but i am enable to capture the event. I have used event.keyCode but it always gives me an undefined values – Shardul Pendse Mar 22 '14 at 21:27
  • hmm can you show this in action in a plunkr? I just did one with a ng-keyup ng-keydown handlers to prevent default for scrolling and it seemed to work. You need to pass through $event in the handler if you define it in the HTML – shaunhusain Mar 22 '14 at 21:28

  • Great glad you got it sorted you can eventually post it as an answer to your own question I believe (might be a delay since you're a relatively new SO user) – shaunhusain Mar 22 '14 at 21:42
