“add to cart” is not working in my Magento Mobile version. Its build up of Jquery-Mobile.

Javascript console says

Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method ‘submit’ of undefined

I searched the code for a long time but couldnt find out the error. I am a little bit new to magento and Jquery- mobile versions. Please help. I will share my codes below.

    Try console.log(productAddToCartForm) right after this line:

            var productAddToCartForm = new VarienForm('product_addtocart_form');
    

    What is the output ?
    Make sure the file containing those VarienForm js classes is actually loaded in the page. Basically check the console for any potential missing JS libraries, if you havent modified anything thats possibly the reason…
