Answer 1

We're doing this:

$(document).on("pagecontainershow", function() {
    var activePage = $.mobile.pageContainer.pagecontainer("getActivePage");

    var activePageId = activePage[0].id;

    if(activePageId != 'splashPage') { //fix rotation splash flash bug
        $("#splashPage").hide();
    } else {
        $("#splashPage").show();
    }

    switch(activePageId) {
        case 'loginPage':
            loginPageShow();
            break;
        case 'notificationPage':
            notificationPageShow();
            break;
        case 'postPage':
            postPageShow();
            break;
        case 'profilePage':
            profilePageShow();
            break;
        case 'splashPage':
            splashPageShow();
            break;
        case 'timelinePage':
            timelinePageShow();
            break;
        default:
            break;
    }
});

And navigation works like this:

    $.mobile.loading('hide');
    $(":mobile-pagecontainer").pagecontainer("change", "#timelinePage", {
        transition: 'none'
    });

Answer 2

Both of this solutions are good but I needed to put it inside document.ready(function()

$(document).ready(function(){
var activePage = $.mobile.activePage[0].id;
alert(activePage);
});

Answer 3

Jquery mobile 1.4.3 friendly...

$(document).on('pagebeforeshow', function () {
    var URL = $.mobile.path.parseUrl(window.location).toString().toLowerCase();

    alert(URL);
});

Answer 4

Try this, it's working for me:

var activePage = $.mobile.activePage[0].id;

Here is a Fiddle with an alert that is working: http://jsfiddle.net/9XThY/3/

Answer 5

$(document).ready(function() {

//exit when back button pressed on home screen
document.addEventListener("deviceready", function() {
    document.addEventListener("backbutton", function() {
        if ($.mobile.activePage.attr('id') == "home") {
            navigator.app.exitApp();
        } else {
            navigator.app.backHistory();
        }
    }, false);
}, false);

});

Answer 6

$(document).live('pagebeforeshow', function() {
    alert($.mobile.activePage.attr('id'));
});​
