ahh that's why mine broke as well. I'm having the exact same issue. Anyone else figure out a way around this?

This works for me in the page plugin of a mobile site, although I don't know if this also works for a web app:

1. $("a").bind("click", function() {
2.     if (this.href) {
3.         location.href = this.href;
4.         return false;
5.     }
6. });

Do you set <meta name="apple-mobile-web-app-capable" content="yes" /> in head ? If so, remove it to try.

If you wants to run the app in full-screen mode, one of the workaround is to open the link using javascript, such as

$(window).click(handleClick);

function handleClick(e) {
    var target = $(e.target).closest('a');
    if( target ) {
        e.preventDefault();
        window.location = target.attr('href');
    }
}

@davidilin's code resulted in the regular links (that did not have data-ajax=false) breaking. Here's what *did* work for me:

I don't know if this works in all cases for you but it doesn't for me. I'm trying to build a webapp and this problem is annoying as hell ... First I tried to open all links like this :

1. $("a").bind("click", function(){
2. if (this.href){
3. location.href = this.href;
4. return false;
5. }
6. });

But the problem is that I have a form page with a select tag and in JQM, the select is a link. So I tried your solution and it worked unless I did this :

1. Open webapp
   
2. Click on a "data-ajax=false" link
3. Page opens properly so I click on the "back" button to go back home (ajax animation displayed)
4. Now that I'm back on home screen I click on that same "data-ajax=false" link and the page is opened in Safari

What seems to be the problem is that I went on a page that is displayed by the ajax loader and it didn't reload the JS. If my JS is not reloaded, it can't be applied to links. That's the only explanation I found ... Does someone know how to fix this, maybe forcing that JS code to reload even if the page is loaded with ajax ? Anyway, thanks for everything :)
