Question

I’m working on a JQM app and would like to have the user choose a value from an iOS select menu (you know, the one that looks like a slot machine) when the user clicks on a

Questions:

1) Does anyone know of a more elegant way to launch it without having the as a hidden object and calling some kind of trigger event?

2) If the answer is “no”, does anyone know the command to call? I think it’s something like $(“#select-element”).trigger(‘click’);

3) Does Android have its own form of native spinner-type select control? (I’m only coding for iOS and Android)

Thanks in advance!
