Answer 1

You cannot start the jQuery mobile with $(document).ready() you should started like this:

try to work with this in the first HTML

$("div[data-role*='page']").live('pageshow', function(event, ui) { 
    document.location.href="newPage.html";
});

Answer 2

Geoff, if you are using the Beta 3 version of the JQM framework, read this. It will help shed light on the DOM and $(document).ready(). You may want to consider the "pagecreate" and "pagebeforecreate" events. They are delineated in the doc referenced in the above link.
