in this project im using jquery and phonegap
i have a link that if clicked , changes the page:
$('#statsButtonmain').on('click', function() {
$.mobile.changePage("stats.html", { transition: "slideup"}, true, true);
});
this works fine, but i would like to run a function (playMusic()
) when the transition is done, something like this:
$('#statsButtonmain').on('click', function() {
$.mobile.changePage("stats.html", { transition: "slideup"}, true, true);
playMusic();
});
i found out that there is a pageshow
event that gets triggered on the page being shown, after its transition completes, but im not sure how to use it
this doesn't seem to work, any ideas?
Thanks
I've not done a lot a jQuery mobile development so this might not be the most efficient solution. As you said, the pageshow
event is what you need to use. Here are the 2 HTML files I ran locally in which I see the alert after the stats.html
page transition is completed. The .live()
is bound to the #stats
element's page pageshow
event.
