I'm trying to get a div with data-type 'dialog' to display in JQuery Mobile, fired by a Javascript event. The button click in the example below is purely to fire the event.
<head>
<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.2.1/jquery.mobile-1.2.1.min.css" />
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.9.1/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.3.0/jquery.mobile-1.3.0.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function() {
//$.mobile.changePage('#addCatForm');
$('#createEvent').click (function () {
console.log('Prove event fired');
$.mobile.changePage('#addCatForm', {
transition: 'pop',
changeHash: false,
role: 'dialog'
});
});
});
</script>
</head>
<body>
<div data-role="page" id="mainPage">
<button id="createEvent">Create Event</button>
<div data-role="dialog" id="addCatForm" data-theme="c">
<p>here is some text</p>
<div data-role="content">
<input type="text" id="catText" data-theme="c"/>
<input data-role="button" data-mini="true" data-theme="b" data-inline="true" type="submit" id="addCat" value="Add Category">
<button data-role="button" data-mini="true" data-theme="c" data-inline="true" id="canCat">Cancel</button>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
The console.log output correctly fires, but nothing I can do seems to get the dialog to display.
Any help appreciated.
Thank you,
Working example: http://jsfiddle.net/Gajotres/Jx9xM/
$(document).ready(function() {
$('#createEvent').click (function () {
console.log('Prove event fired');
$.mobile.changePage('#addCatForm', {
transition: 'pop',
changeHash: true,
role: 'dialog'
});
});
});
Dialog must be on a same level as a page and not a part of the page. I this case I have moved dialog outside of a page.
