jquery mobile static footer navbar

Question

Found this answer In Jquery mobile, Header and footers are always hiding, when clicking inside the page?

The only difference that I have is I do NOT have data-fullscreen="true" but have a data-cache="never".

footer bar keeps fading in and out. Just want footer navbar to be on bottom of screen without fades.

<div data-role="page" data-cache="never" id="mainPage">
<script>
$('#mainPage').live('pagecreate', function (event) {

    $.fixedToolbars.setTouchToggleEnabled(false);

});
</script>
....header stuff
<div data-role="content" id="mainContent">
....
</div>
<div data-role="footer" data-theme="a" data-position="fixed">
  <div data-role="navbar">
    <ul>
      ... 4 li's
    </ul>
  </div>
</div>
</div>

EDIT

Here we go. How is this done? http://jquerymobile.com/test/experiments/scrollview/#../../docs/toolbars/footer-persist-a.html

Header loads immediately but not footer. Would like for my footer to act like the header of that page.

This is fixed in jQueryMobile 1.1 rc1. See this link

Use data-tap-toggle="false" on your footer.
