Hi John,

your selector is missing colon:

@selector(back:)

for method:

-(IBAction)back:(id)sender

hth,

I wanted to merely set my own image for the back button, instead of it using the title of the controller above in the hierarchy.  So, this is what I did (yes this app is using Three20, but I don't think that's the reason):

However, my "back" selector isn't called, and the back button _works_ like it always has. While i'm not in any way against freebees like this, i'm a bit concerned as to _why_ it works like this.  Any explanation would be appreciated, explanations that actually edify me more so :-)
