Question

When using the jQuery mobile framework many simple elements get special attributes added to them during the page load to make them looks pretty. I want to be able to add new elements to my page, but have these elements have all of the proper attributes. I am currently loading the page and then doing an ajax call to retrieve some data and using that data to create new elements on the page, but when I do that they don’t get the attributes generated. How do I make this work?

Answer 1

You can initialize them after your AJAX call completes. Most of the widgets have an associated jQuery plugin function, similar to regular jQuery plugins.

Example – textinput has an associated textinput function

$('input').textinput();
