Is there a way to implement swipe gesture navigation on a jQuery Mobile multi-page template mobile website/application?
I can put together a deadset easy construct as follows:
$("body").bind("swipeleft", function(e) {
$.mobile.changePage( 'about.html', { transition: "slide" });
But the moment I start using anchor tags (multi-page JQM style), the event does not work:
$("body").bind("swipeleft", function(e) {
$.mobile.changePage( '#points2', { transition: "slide" });
Is there a suitable workaround for this or would I have to abandon the multi-page setup to get this to work?
