What's the right way to initialize objects on a jquery mobile page? The events docs say to use "pageInit()" with no examples of that function, but give examples of binding to the "pageinit" method (note case difference). However, I don't see the event firing at all in this simple test page:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.6.4/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8" src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0b3/jquery.mobile-1.0b3.min.js"></script>
<div data-role="page" id="myPage">
test
</div>
<script>
$("#myPage").live('pageinit',function() {
alert("This never happens");
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
What am I missing? I should add that if you change pageinit to another event like pagecreate this code works.
---- UPDATE ----
This bug is marked as "closed" in the JQM issue tracker. Apparently opinions differ about whether this is working properly or not.

It started working when I embedded script within page div:
<body>
<div id="indexPage" data-role="page">
<script type="text/javascript">
$("#indexPage").live('pageinit', function() {
// do something here...
});
</script>
</div>
</body>
Used jQuery Mobile 1.0RC1

.live() is deprecated, suggestion is to use .on() in jQuery 1.7+ :
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).on('pageinit', '#indexPage', function(){
// code
});
</script>
Check the online doc for more information about .on(): http://api.jquery.com/on/

Turns out this is a bug in 1.0b3 that is fixed in the current head. So if you want a fix now, you gotta grab the latest from git. Or wait for the next release.

jQuery(document).live('pageinit',function(event){
centerHeaderDiv();
updateOrientation();
settingsMenu.init();
menu();
hideMenuPopupOnBodyClick();
})
This is working now. Now all page transitions and all JQM AJAX functionality would work along with your defined javascript functions! Enjoy!
