dojox.mobile.Heading moveTo does not work with hash

[bluk]

In my dojox.mobile application, I have a header like:

<h2 dojoType="dojox.mobile.Heading" back="Home" moveTo="#home">Header</h2>

I require dojo.hash in my code. The latest trunk version of Dojo has an undefined error in dojox.mobile.Heading#goTo function when I click on the back button.

                var view = this._view;
                var parent = dijit.byId(moveTo).getParent();
                while(view){
                    var myParent = view.getParent();
                    if (parent == myParent){
                        break;
                    }
                    view = myParent;
                }
                if(view){
                    view.performTransition(moveTo, -1, this.transition);
                }
            }

The problem is in the dijit.byId(moveTo) call. The moveTo could contain a hash like "#home" which dijit.byId() will not work with.

I temporarily changed the code to:

               var viewMoveTo = moveTo;
                if(moveTo !== undefined && typeof(moveTo) == "string" && moveTo.charAt(0) == '#'){
                    moveTo.match(/^#?([^&]+)/);
                    viewMoveTo = RegExp.$1;
                }

                var view = this._view;
                var parent = dijit.byId(viewMoveTo).getParent();

I'm not sure if that's the right fix but it allowed me to make progress.

You are correct, and your fix looks ok. I will slightly modify you fix simply because I don't want to duplicate the pattern matching code.
