Question

I am using jQuery mobile to develop a mobile website the problem is that links don’t work in Internet explorer mobile

<a rel="external" href="http://www.external-site.com" title="" class="ui-link" style="text-decoration: none; ">

that is how the link looks i tried also with:

<a data-role="none" href="http://www.external-site.com" title="" class="ui-link" style="text-decoration: none; ">

I am wondering how are the links to external domains supposed to look to be able to work in windows mobile internet explorer

Answer 1

Try linking the page like this:

<a data-role="none" href="http://www.google.com" class="ui-link" rel="external"  style="text-decoration: none; ">Multi-page link</a>

There is a chapter aboout linking pages in jQuery mobile docs. Have you read those?

Based on this question:
jquery Mobile urls add # tag which breaks forms in Internet Explorer
Setting data-ajax=”false” should help.
