I´m developing an app for Android/Iphones

I´m using JQuery Mobile and PhoneGap.

I need to store some data in a list of links so i was thinking of using this:

And it seems to work on my phone (Android 2.3.3) but when seeing this list:
http://html5test.com/compare/feature/elements-dataset.html (scroll down to Android phones)

it seems that ALOT of phones webbrowsers doesn’t support the “data” attribute feature. Is that really correct? Why does it work on my Android 2.3.3 phone when in the link above it says it doesn’t.
