JQuery Mobile showPageLoadingMsg will not work in my application. The following code just produces the spinning wheel with no text:

$.mobile.showPageLoadingMsg("b", "please wait...");

I can get just the message by adding true as the last argument:

$.mobile.showPageLoadingMsg("b", "please wait...", true);

But I cannot get the the wheel AND the message. to appear at the same time

Do I need to have my own theme or… what am I missing?
Heres an example on JSFiddle http://jsfiddle.net/ashanova/VBavX/18/

    You need to set the loadingMessageTextVisible property to true. Something like:

    $.mobile.loadingMessageTextVisible = true; // best to put this in mobile init

    From the docs:
    loadingMessageTextVisible boolean, default: false
    Whether the text should be visible when a loading message is shown. The text is always visible for loading errors.

    I think this property and the showPageLoading method is somewhat confusing and should be update or fix the showPageLoading appropriately.

    Here is your updated example http://jsfiddle.net/VBavX/21/
