AJAX or nothing form handling with Alpha 2?

AJAX or nothing form handling with Alpha 2?

According to the docs I should be able to override default ajax form handling with this:

  1. $(document).bind("mobileinit", function(){
  2.   $.extend(  $.mobile , {
  3.     ajaxFormsEnabled: false
  4.   });
  5. });

But when I do that, not only does the ajax form handling stop, but the form itself becomes inoperative. Clicking submit does nothing, and the href attribute of the link created by jquery mobile goes to "#". The form method and action are set, and everything worked fine under Alpha 1.
