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 .

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...

Curious scenes in Google Map Satellite view...

            Most of you'll must have already seen many images like air crafts, brand logos, animals captured in the Google Satellite images or Google Earth for that matter. I am going to point out some that I found amazing... Italy's Big Pink Bunny - Google Map Link Australia's Blue Tree - Google Map Link  Nevada's Desert Crop Circle - Google Map Link  England's Dino Maze - Google Map Link Oregon's Firefox Crop Circle - Google Map Link              The above images are just a few of the many amazing Google Satellite images available on the web...Hope you enjoy them! Feel free to post links and images similar to these, here... Update - March 15, 2012:         I just came across the following freaky street view in Google Maps. I am sharing the image and the actual Google link here. You will need to enable t...

Difference between word-break: break-all versus word-wrap: break-word

    The 2 CSS properties  word-break: break-all  and  word-wrap: break-word  appear to work in the same way or generate the same output, but there is a slight difference between the 2 and we will be discussing these differences today.     Take a look at the example above. The difference is quite evident, however I will try to explain it further. word-break: break-all Irrespective of whether it’s a continuous word or many words, break-all breaks them up at the edge of the width limit even within the characters of the same word word-wrap: break-word This will wrap long words onto the next line. break-word adjusts different words so that they do not break in the middle.     So if you have many fixed-size spans which get content dynamically, you might just prefer using  word-wrap: break-word , as that way only the continuous words are broken in between, and in case it’s a sentence comprising many words, the spa...

Two maps on the same page - Side-by-side

    How good I am feeling to post a code example after such a long time! It's been all "news" over the past so many posts! Well now that I am finally doing a code example, I am posting a very highly requested code sample. Placing two Google Maps on the same page (Now that's simple you would say!), but side by side. Now this is the thing that most people struggle with. Well, implementing the second part is also very simple, as you will see in today's code.     Let's see the code. Here it is!     The output of the above code will be as seen in the result section above.     As most of you will realize, there are two maps, one centered at "Pune" and other at "Noida". Why I chose these two locations? Well, just like that!...The main issue of concern is how the maps appeared side-by-side and not one below the other as would be normal behavior of two "div" elements used in the same page. Now here is the trick! Check out the...
