There are several ways of achieving this, and you can find them in my other ARTICLE, or find it HERE. Search for chapter called: Methods of markup enhancement prevention.

And here's a short description with examples. There are several solutions and you will need to pick right one:

Methods of markup enhancement prevention:

This can be done in few ways, sometimes you will need to combine them to achieve a desired result.

• Method 1:

  It can do it by adding this attribute:

  data-enhance="false"
  

  to the header, content, footer container.

  This also needs to be turned in the app loading phase:

  $(document).one("mobileinit", function () {
      $.mobile.ignoreContentEnabled=true;
  });
  

  Initialize it before jquery-mobile.js is initialized (look at the example below).

  More about this can be found here:

  http://jquerymobile.com/test/docs/pages/page-scripting.html

  Example: http://jsfiddle.net/Gajotres/UZwpj/

  To recreate a page again use this:

  $('#index').live('pagebeforeshow', function (event) {
      $.mobile.ignoreContentEnabled = false;
      $(this).attr('data-enhance','true');
      $(this).trigger("pagecreate")
  });
  

• Method 2:

  Second option is to do it manually with this line:

  data-role="none"

• Method 3:

  Certain HTML elements can be prevented from markup enhancement:

   $(document).bind('mobileinit',function(){
        $.mobile.page.prototype.options.keepNative = "select, input";
   });
