Jquery Mobile - Multi-page structure

    In this post today, we will have a look at the multi-page Jquery mobile architecture. We have discussed the single page architecture in detail in the previous post. In case you have missed it, I recommend you to have a look at it first, before you proceed to the Jquery Mobile Multi-page architecture.

    Jquery multi-page architecture is nothing but a collection of DIVs stacked together in a single HTML page linked to each other using the div IDs. Let's take a look at the example below and then discuss it in detail. The example shows a three "page" site built with 3 jQuery Mobile divs navigated by linking to an id placed on each page wrapper. Note that the id's on the page wrappers are only needed to support the internal page linking, and are optional if each page is a separate HTML document. Here is what three pages look inside the body element.


    You must have observed that each of the page div has an attribute data-role="page" and an id associated with it. Each page is required to have a unique id which is used to link these pages together. When a link is clicked, the Jquery Mobile framework will look for an internal page with that id and transition the page into view. Another thing to remember is that the id attribute of all your elements must be not only unique on a given page, but also unique across the pages in a site. This is because jQuery Mobile's single-page navigation model allows many different "pages" to be present in the DOM at the same time. This also applies when using the multi-page template, since all the "pages" on the template are loaded at the same time.

UPDATE: The following example makes use of the next stable version of Jquery Mobile 1.3.1


   Hope the single page and multi-page jQuery mobile structures are clear. However, there is a small problem with the multi-page structure approach that you might face while implementing it. How to have a different page title for all the pages that are stacked in one single HTML? There is a simple solution to this which JQuery Mobile has provided us with and we will discuss it in the next post.

    Hope you followed this post and it has helped you. Stay tuned for more such code samples and snippets.

Playing with the markers and info window bubbles...

    In the last few posts, we have seen some marker examples and some information window examples. Now, lets do something interesting combining these two things. Just writing that "This is an info window" in the information bubble is not very interesting! And I know this...Have gone through the same phase!     So, today we will do something interesting! We will display the latitude- longitude co-ordinates of the point that the user clicks on the map! Doing this is not at all complex! Copy paste the following code and you will see for yourself a map coming to life!     The output of the above code looks as seen in the result section above! If you have any queries regarding the above code please comment on the blog post or feel free to contact me at my mail ID .

Where does Google get it's live traffic data from?

Referring to a post that I wrote earlier, Google’s - Live traffic Layer , ever wondered how Google collected this data? I was wondering the other day, how Google received live data to display it on their maps as a layer! I looked up the web and found something very interesting and am sharing the same with you all. As we all know, the traffic layer is available most accurately in several states in USA. Most major metro areas in the US have sensors embedded in their highways. These sensors track real time traffic data. Easy to miss at high speeds (hopefully anyway, traffic permitting), more commonly noticed may be the similar sensors that often exist at many busy intersections that help the traffic lights most efficiently let the most amount of people through. The information from these tracking sensors is reported back to the Department of Transportation (DOT). The DOT uses this data to update some of the digital signs that report traffic conditions in many metro areas. They als...

Form info window

         Today we will look at a Google Maps API v3 example to add a form in the information bubble! This is usually required when we wish to accept some data/information from the user! This data can be saved to a server in the form of an XML file or a database! The information can then be retrieved back at a later stage, when necessary!          In this example we will only look at form in the information bubble! The connectivity part with the server will be discussed in another post! So, today's code snippet is as seen below! <html> <head> <title> Google Maps API v3 - Adding marker and info window on Click and creating a form in the infowindow with the lat-lng information in it. </title> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false"></script> <script type="text/javascript"> var map;    //When using ev...

The Street View Army

    Google's Street Views have caused controversy more often than not. Sometimes for privacy issues, sometimes for security reasons. But whatever the media has to say, we can't deny the fact that Google Street Views has brought the entire world at your finger tips. You can visit places that you would not be able to visit ever. You can walk the roads, that you had only imagined of treading. You can experience for yourself, various cultures, events, religions and lives of people across the globe all at the comfort of your home. You can visit the deserts, the snow clad mountains, the giant rivers or the gushing waterfalls. Today, let's take a look at the efforts Google is taking to capture the world for us.
