Handling Back Button to be WebNavigator

Question

I am working in an application and I have created a WebView which displays the Website my Web View is inside a fragment. But, I have a problem handling the Back Button, it closes the application. I have tried to handle the back button as the followings :

        rootView.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onKey(View arg0, int arg1, KeyEvent arg2) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            if (arg1 == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && myWebView.canGoBack()) {
                myWebView.goBack();
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
    });

This is inside

 onCreateView

It doesn't work. How can I handle the Back button to go back to the previous back and if there is no pages to be backed to. It closes the app.

This is my Fragment code :

public class NewsFragment extends Fragment {


private ProgressDialog progressDialog;
private WebView myWebView ;

public NewsFragment() {
    // Required empty public constructor
}


    // Otherwise defer to system default behavior.




@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
                         Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    // Inflate the layout for this fragment
    View rootView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_news, container, false);

    myWebView = (WebView) rootView.findViewById(R.id.mwl_Website);
    myWebView.setWebViewClient(new WebViewClient());
    myWebView.getSettings().setBuiltInZoomControls(true);
    myWebView.requestFocusFromTouch();
    myWebView.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(true);
    myWebView.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(true);
    myWebView.setVerticalScrollBarEnabled(true);
    myWebView.setHorizontalScrollBarEnabled(true);
    myWebView.requestFocusFromTouch();
    myWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    myWebView.getSettings().setUseWideViewPort(true);
    myWebView.getSettings().setLoadWithOverviewMode(true);

    myWebView.addJavascriptInterface(new WebAppInterface(getActivity()), "Android");

    myWebView.getSettings().setJavaScriptEnabled(true);
    myWebView.loadUrl("http://en.themwl.org/");


    new LoadViewTask().execute();

    rootView.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onKey(View arg0, int arg1, KeyEvent arg2) {
            // TODO Auto-generated method stub
            if (arg1 == KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK && myWebView.canGoBack()) {
                myWebView.goBack();
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
    });


    return rootView;

}

Handle webview back navigation like this...

view.setOnKeyListener(new View.OnKeyListener() {
        @Override
        public boolean onKey(View v, int keyCode, KeyEvent event) {
            if (event.getAction() == android.view.KeyEvent.ACTION_DOWN) {
                if ((keyCode == android.view.KeyEvent.KEYCODE_BACK)) {
                    if(webView!=null)
                    {
                      if(webView.canGoBack())
                      {
                        webView.goBack();
                      }
                    }
                }
            }
            return true;
        }
    });
