iPhone Dev, UINavigationController, How to Programmatically Tell when Back Button is Pressed

Question

I have a UINavigationController, and I was wondering how I can programmatically tell when it has been pressed?

I am asking because I need to perform some actions when the back button is pressed, and ONLY when the back button is pressed. There are cases when I programmatically press the back button, and I need to ignore those instances. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks!

Here is how the problem was solved:

I have a flag set in my application delegate. Initially it is set to False. When I programmatically push the button I set it to TRUE. Then, in the viewWillAppear method of my top view controller, I test the flag and perform necessary actions. I then reset the flag to False.

When you press the button programmatically set a flag. When you go to perform the post press actions check if the flag is set.
