I\'m currently exploring jQuery Mobile to develop a mobile version of a dashboard with ordertracking information. And what the plan is, is to use a simple unordered list with al
//wait to do event binding until the page is being initialized
$(document).delegate('[data-role="page"]', 'pageinit', function () {
//cache the list-view element for later use
var $listview = $(this).find('[data-role="listview"]');
//delegate event binding since the search widget is added dynamically
//bind to the `keyup` event so we can check the value of the input after the user types
$(this).delegate('input[data-type="search"]', 'keyup', function () {
//check to see if there are any visible list-items that are not the `#no-results` element
if ($listview.children(':visible').not('#no-results').length === 0) {
//if none are found then fadeIn the `#no-results` element
$('#no-results').fadeIn(500);
} else {
//if results are found then fadeOut the `#no-results` element which has no effect if it's already hidden
$('#no-results').fadeOut(250);
}
});
});
Here is a demo: http://jsfiddle.net/6Vu4r/1/
