Java Restful web service and jQuery mobile

Java Restful web service and jQuery mobile

I am new mobile application developer. I am currently working on a project where I want develop a mobile web app using jQuery mobile and Java which I will later convert to a native android application using PhoneGap.

I currently develop Java Restful web service using JERSEY JAX-RS which allow my html page to communicate with my database. But when I change my html page to jQuery mobile page, it is not working.

Please!  can any help me with a tutorial that shows how Java Restful web service works with jQuery mobile.

I am using Java and Eclipse IDE.

Regards!
