Need a button that works on smartphone

[Marion5CB7]

I've created a pdf that has a front summary page with links to various headings in the document. I've used the link tool for this and it works with a touch on a smart phone (iPhone).

Then I added a 'Back to page 1' button to each page BUT it didn't work on the smart phone because the button is expecting a mouse not a finger.

So, I put in text saying 'Back to page 1' and surrounded it with a link to go back to page 1. This worked. I tried a text box but it didn't work. That is, the area where the text box was seemed to block out the link.

Now I want to copy the link AND my text to every page. I have copied the link but I can't seem to copy the text. I select it and Ctrl-C. But Ctrl-V only pastes the link box, not the text. This is such a pain!

Any ideas on how to do this more easily?

My customer doesn't want to use bookmarks.

Thanks

Hi, did you try add javascript to button?

like this: this.pageNum = 0;

It works for me on android phone.

What app are you using on the phone to open the file with?

What exact command did you attach to the button?

Using a separate text field and a link one on top of another is not a good idea. I would add the text as static text and then place a transparent link on top of it, if that's the only thing that works, but in theory a button and a link should work in the same exact way...
