I am building an app for mobiles, using jquery mobile framework. I want to be able to make a simple dialog box/pop up, so that when you click on a picture of a “question mark” the pop up/ dialog box would appear with a simple message.
I have tried different approaches from http://jquerymobile.com/test/docs/pages/dialog-alt.html to so many others. I couldnt get non of them to work. So If you know how to make a simple pop up or a simple dialog box could you please give me an example!

    If you want to open a dialog in jquery mobile you have to use an attribute data-rel="dialog" and the href must point to a URL where your dialog lives:

    <a href="http://jquerymobile.com/test/docs/pages/dialog-alt.html" data-role="button" data-rel="dialog">Open dialog</a>

    Here’s a fiddle so you can see how it works.
    Hope it helps.

    UPDATE:

    It seems there’s a problem with jQuery Mobile dialog and some devices.
    There’s an issue open in the GitHub repository.
    I’ve found this plugin which seems to work really well.
