Persistent footer instability in v1.1 with long select lists in Android 2.3.3

[douglerner]

In v1.1, in Android 2.3.3, if there is a page with a long list (longer than the screen) containing a persistent navbar, very often you cannot click transition from one page to another.

You can reproduce this problem on your Android 2.3.3 device by going to http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.1.0/docs/toolbars/footer-persist-d.html and click around on the four navbar items: friends, albums, emails and info.

Very often, after going to Friends if you then click on Albums, the Albums page does not load and you don't transition from Friends.

I think this may be the same as #4069 or #4032

Yes, you're right. It seems to be a widely noticed issue.

At any rate, it certainly is a show-stopper preventing upgrade to v1.1. Having the UI actually work is even more important than how pretty it is. :)

I can confirm this is still an issue with latest, (tested on the HTC Incredible Android 2.3.? from the test lab).

Update: the issue only occured after I scrolled the list first.

@arschmiz is working on a solution for several fixed toolbar issues (arschmitz@3f5a5bb#commitcomment-2046348) that might fix this issue as well.

Where do we find the fix? Is it in the form of an upgrade Jquery Mobile?

Thanks,

This extension will ship with version 1.3. You can grab the code from master if you need it sooner.

Thanks. I look forward to trying it. I still haven't upgraded from 1.01 because of this. :)
