Issues reloading pages within navbar
Application Specs: ASP .NET, Jquery Mobile 1.3.1
When navigating between pages that utilize the data-role "navbar", I am having issues with page reloads. It seems to be loading the page out of the DOM and not firing any functions on page load. I have a page that contains an element that needs to be updated on page load but when transitioning between pages on the navbar and then back to the original page, the page load functions do not fire. However, accessing that same page via an ordinary button works just fine. I have tried using both Javascript pageinit and asp code behind but neither have worked. I would prefer not to use the rel="external" as I would like to keep transitions. Keep in mind that the transition from the ordinary button works fine.
My presumption is that the pages that contain the navbar are completely cached. I am using jQuery 1.3.1 which supposedly does not cache pages in the DOM by default.
Any thoughts or ideas?
