webview activity in android

Question

I have two activity let A and B. A is listActivity and B is webViewActivity. Now in webview, when i back pressed then it works fine within webview but in last back pressed, it resides in activity B but I want to go back to Activity A (listActivity). My code for back pressed

public boolean onKeyDown(int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
        if(event.getAction() == KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN){
            switch(keyCode)
            {
            case KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK:
                if(webView.canGoBack()){
                    webView.goBack();
                }else{
                    finish();
                }
                return true;
            }

        }
        return super.onKeyDown(keyCode, event);
    }

Thanks.

@MD I think onBackPressed and onKeyDown(with KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) are same. if i am wrong plese correct me and what i have to write in onBackPressed(). — dheerajraaj, Jan 20 '15 at 13:28

@MD public void onBackPressed() { if(webView.canGoBack()) { webView.goBack(); } else { super.onBackPressed(); } } its not fulfil my requirement. Its working same as before. — dheerajraaj, Jan 20 '15 at 13:34

    @Override
    public void onBackPressed() {

         super.onBackPressed();
    }

onbackpressed function call when you pressed back button then finish current activity.

Overriding a method and providing an implementation where you call the method in the super class is complete nonsense. This does absolutely nothing useful. – David Wasser Jan 20 '15 at 17:38
