I recently had the opportunity to begin exploring and toying around with Windows Phone 8 development.

Why you ask?  Why not really, but mostly because I was giving a free phone and it’s an untapped market when it comes to apps.  At this stage it’s not over diluted like the Android and iPhone stores are.  That and of course there is an option to create apps using HTML, Javascript, and CSS – technologies I’ve used and mastered for years!

I actually submitted my first app last weekend – and sadly – it got rejected :(  I was given two reasons; firstly I did set a default application icon, whoops my bad.  Secondly, I didn’t properly handle the back button since there are “multiple pages” in my application.

It took me several hours to finally found the answer so I thought I would share it.  Please note, this feels like a bit of a hack, but I wasn’t able to get the “suggested” solutions working…
