I'm needing some help with the datepicker use in mobile app.
I'm using the jQuery UI datepicker in my app. But the datepicker is show twice (duplicate) when I put it in the second page. However when I put the datepicker in the first page, is shown ok.
This is an example, if you run it you can see that the datepicker is duplicate in second page.

<div data-role="page" id="firstPage">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>First page</h1>
</div><!-- /header -->
<div data-role="content">
<p><a href="#secondPage">Next page with a Datepicker</a></p>
</div><!-- /content -->
<div data-role="footer">
<h4>Page Footer</h4>
</div><!-- /footer -->
</div><!-- /page -->
<!-- Start of second page -->
<div data-role="page" id="secondPage">
<div data-role="header">
<h1>Second page</h1>
</div><!-- /header -->
<div data-role="content">
<label for="date">Date Input:</label>
<input type="date" name="date" id="date" value="" />
</div><!-- /content -->
<div data-role="footer">
<h4>Page Footer</h4>
</div><!-- /header -->
</div><!-- /page -->
</body>
</html>
Thanks for help me in advance.
Finally we got a solution from one of my Project manager. We have to do one work around in jquery.ui.datepicker.mobile.js.
Replace the following method using below code.
$( ".ui-page" ).live( "pagecreate", function(){
$( "input[type='date'], input[data-type='date']" ).each(function(){
if ($(this).hasClass("hasDatepicker") == false) {
$(this).after( $( "<div />" ).datepicker({ altField: "#" + $(this).attr( "id" ), showOtherMonths: true }) );
$(this).addClass("hasDatepicker");
}
});
});
The above function pagecreate will call every time page load. The same date picker creation ine will execute while navigating to next page. So we have added a condition to execute this line only one time during page load. Now it is working fine.
