Question

I have a small jQuery mobile site.

• it’s all single .html file
• it’s has some edit functionality (view, edit, save)
• all works with ajax/json/web service

Most of my pages are using data from web service, via AJAX & JSON, so I am using the following a lot:

$(document).on( 'pagebeforecreate', '#monday', function() {

// do some stuff on before create, load data with AJAX

});

Now, how do I FORCE that page recreation (pagebeforecreate event) so the AJAX inside is run again (get the latest data from server)?

Answer 1

Use pageBeforeShow instead of pageBeforeCreate.

From the jqm documentation, about creation events.

Note that these events will only fire once per “page”, as opposed to the show/hide events, which fire every time a page is shown and hidden.
