Mobile theme formatting not applied to tempate

Mobile theme formatting not applied to tempate

I'm working on a mobile app with which I'm hoping to use the jQuery Template (tmpl) plugin.

The app retrieves JSON data from a web service and then uses a template to layout the data.

The trouble is that mobile elements (e.g. the slider) are rendering as browser native, rather than the Mobile themed version (please note: I am not testing this on an actual mobile browser, but in the chrome desktop browser).

Refer to the attached screen shots: 
Mobile_Load is the layout when not using a template
Mobile_Template is when using a template

I assume that I need to call some method to register the markup for mobile layout, but not sure what that may be.
