Issue with jQM new popup widget and iFrame about jquerymobile-router HOT 8 CLOSED

I think this issue is not related to the router because it can't do anything to "harm" pages or application layouts. Popups don't even trigger page events.
The issue may reside in jquery mobile itself (but it's not likely) or in some event handler used in your code.

If you provide a tgz or a zip file of the source code, I'll try and see if the issue can be tracked down in a short amount of time.

It turns out I was wrong.

The router was forcing a useless changePage that, under normal circumstances, is harmless.
In this specific case, jQuery Mobile was failing, probably due to a bug, during the page transition.

@bardu found out that the issue could be partially solved by disabling the slide effect.

However, I've patched the router to avoid the forced changePage when the popup is closed.

I have a new use case where I need to initialize and open a popup programmatically like:

$('#popupLogin').popup();
$('#popupLogin').popup('open');

Then I see the same issue as of before your patch, could you please check?

from jquerymobile-router.

$('#popupLogin').popup({ history: false });

didn't help either.

Hi bardu,
unfortunately the popup api and implementation seem way too inconsistent to build something on them.
The .popup("open") call don't even trigger a pagebeforechange event, nor popup events.
Writing a patch without these hook points is impossible.

I've noticed, however, that if you have a link such as:

<a href="#popupMap" id="mylink123" data-rel="popup">Open Popup</a>

Calling:

$("#mylink123").trigger("click");

produces the expected results (jQM fires the right events and the router can perform its task).

Hi Andrea,

I have tried your suggestion before, but it didn't work in my use case, and I run into more issues with the popup widget not related to routing.

I find the popup widget pretty useful, but as you said, it isn't mature enough to build something on it.

So, for now I will revert to a dialog widget for my latest use case and will see what jQM 1,2,1 has to offer regarding popup.

If you don't mind, I'll email you a popup widget I've been using for the
last year in my jQM projects.
It's a small backbone view with a couple of methods, but you can easily
revert it to a standard function if you want.

Much appreciated, I'm using backbone anyway!
