Question

Some links within my Android Phonegap application will work in portrait orientation, but not in landscape orientation. The links are jquery event binded:

$('a.button').bind('click',function(){
           //do stuff
           return false;
});

Testing within a web browser is 100% fine. Only on the device do the links actually die (in landscape mode). Is it possible that if there are too many objects in the DOM, the Phonegap application starts bugging out?

Answer 1

1. do you use pageinit event before the binding to make sure everything in the dom exists? this is phonegap bestpractice and may help

2. you can try to replace bind with .live or .delegate. if the links are somehow created with ajax or added to the dom dynamicaly then bind wouldn’t work.
