Hello, I'm building an android app with HTML5 and Javascript, and I want to add a close button to end my application. I read that I can do by using Phonegap API, I installed phonegap and I cannot find the phonegap.js on my hard drive.

Is there another way to end my application? Where can I find phonegap.js?

Thank you

Thats 2 separate questions. First you need to configure PhoneGap properly with your IDE. Check your Downloads folder.. then config with your IDE by checking these documentation properly:
Getting started with PhoneGap in Eclipse for Android[^]
http://phonegap.com/developer/[^]

To exit from your app do code like:

JavaScript

exitApp:function() {   
app.exitApp();
}

Add the phonegap.js file to the <head></head> section. More details you can find from here: https://www.howtoforge.com/setting-up-an-android-app-build-environment-with-eclipse-android-sdk-phonegap-fedora-14-p5
