jQuery Mobile navigate or changePage?

Question

With the arrival of jQuery Mobile 1.3, the .navigate() function has been added. I\'ve heard that is the recommended way to change pages, and it seems they addr

Answer 1

$.mobile.navigate is still a new function, according to code comments it is also a work in progress.

Transition is active among hidden options;

$.mobile.navigate( "#bar", { transition : "slide", info: "info about the #bar hash" });

On the other hand, change to direction reverse is still not implemented, default false value is applied.

Answer 2

The other way would be to use:

$.mobile.pageContainer.pagecontainer("change", "target", 
                 {transition: "flow", changeHash: false, reload: true})

Answer 3

Use the Pagecontainer widget added in v1.4.

$(":mobile-pagecontainer").pagecontainer("change", "jquerypageIdentifier",{ options in key value format } );

e.g

$(":mobile-pagecontainer").pagecontainer("change", "#nextpage",{ transition: "slide",role: "dialog" } );
