Angular ng-click with call to a controller function not working

Question

You should probably use the ngHref directive along with the ngClick:

 <a ng-href="#here" ng-click='go()' >click me</a>

Here is an example: http://plnkr.co/edit/FSH0tP0YBFeGwjIhKBSx?p=preview

<body ng-controller="MainCtrl">
    <p>Hello {{name}}!</p>
    {{msg}}
    <a ng-href="#here" ng-click='go()' >click me</a>
    <div style="height:1000px">

      <a id='here'></a>

    </div>
     <h1>here</h1>
  </body>

var app = angular.module('plunker', []);

app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope) {
  $scope.name="World";

  $scope.go = function() {

    $scope.msg = 'clicked';
  }
});

I don’t know if this will work with the library you are using but it will at least let you link and use the ngClick function.

** Update **

Here is a demo of the set and get working fine with a service.

http://plnkr.co/edit/FSH0tP0YBFeGwjIhKBSx?p=preview

var app = angular.module('plunker', []);

app.controller('MainCtrl', function($scope, sharedProperties) {
  $scope.name="World";

  $scope.go = function(item) {
    sharedProperties.setListName(item);


  }

  $scope.getItem = function() {

    $scope.msg = sharedProperties.getListName();
  }
});

app.service('sharedProperties', function () {
    var list_name="";

    return {

        getListName: function() {
            return list_name;
        },
        setListName: function(name) {
            list_name = name;
        }
    };


});

Please review https://github.com/centralway/lungo-angular-bridge which talks about how to use lungo and angular. Also note that if your page is completely reloading when browsing to another link, you will need to persist your shared properties into localstorage and/or a cookie.
