Your back button doesn't need an href, and it will interfere with the built-in navigation. Chui.js takes care of the navigation behind the scenes. Take a look at the event handler for the back button press.
/////////////////////////// // Initialize Back Buttons: /////////////////////////// $('body').on('singletap', 'a.back', function() { if (this.classList.contains('back')) { $.UIGoBack(); } });From the documentation for how to include a back button in your navigation bar
<nav class='current'> <a class='button back'>Back</a> <h1>Candies</h1> </nav>
