ios 5 change the background of back button in navigation controller to transparent

问题

I have customised the navigation controller title bar with a background image, but I am really struggling to change the background color of the back button to transparent so that it matches with the green title bar beneath it. I am fairly new to iOS development. Can any one suggest what could be done?

Here is the code for I used to change the title bar of navigation controller, just in case it helps:

- (void)viewDidLoad
{
    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    if ([self.navigationController.navigationBar respondsToSelector:@selector(setBackgroundImage:forBarMetrics:)] ) {
        UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"greenbar.png"];
        [self.navigationController.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:image forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
       // [[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setBackButtonBackgroundImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

    } 

    //change back button image

}

EDIT: After doing a bit of research I managed to get what I wanted. Here is the code to change the background image for the back button:

 UIImage *image1 = [UIImage imageNamed:@"back-bt.png"];
    [[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setBackButtonBackgroundImage:image1 forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

The above code adds the image to all the back buttons in the navigation controller.

You can't change the appearance of the default back button, but you can create your own button to replace it.

- (void)viewDidLoad {

    [super viewDidLoad];
    // Do any additional setup after loading the view, typically from a nib.
    if ([self.navigationController.navigationBar respondsToSelector:@selector(setBackgroundImage:forBarMetrics:)] ) {
        UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"greenbar.png"];
        [self.navigationController.navigationBar setBackgroundImage:image forBarMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];
       // [[UIBarButtonItem appearance] setBackButtonBackgroundImage:image forState:UIControlStateNormal barMetrics:UIBarMetricsDefault];

    } 

    //change back button image
    if(self.navigationController.viewControllers.count > 1) {
        UIButton *backButton = [UIButton buttonWithType:UIButtonTypeCustom];

        [backButton setTitle:@"Back" forState:UIControlStateNormal];
        [backButton addTarget:self action:@selector(didTapBackButton:) forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
        backButton.frame = CGRectMake(0.0f, 0.0f, 64.0f, 41.0f);
        UIBarButtonItem *backButtonItem = [[UIBarButtonItem alloc] initWithCustomView:backButton];

        self.navigationItem.leftBarButtonItem = backButtonItem;
    }
}



- (void) didTapBackButton:(id)sender {
    if(self.navigationController.viewControllers.count > 1) {
        [self.navigationController popViewControllerAnimated:YES];
    }
}
