1.1.0-rc.1 showPageLoadingMsg demo does not work for android 2.3.3

[bmurmistro]

Tried this on an emulator and my phone without success:
http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.1.0-rc.1/docs/config/loadingMessageTextVisible.html
I upgraded my app to 1.1.0-rc.1 and some of my showPageLoadingMsg calls do work in android 2.3.3, but most do not. I haven't tried any other versions of android.

Are you sure it's just not showing up farther down the page? I had that issue when I was playing around with it. I'm actually only able to reproduce on the latest:

Obviously still an issue.

Hi John,

I just tried it again and if I scroll down I do see it on the bottom. I could have sworn it wasn't working at all earlier so I did a little more testing.

Android 2.1 (emulator) - Seemed to work as expected
Android 2.2 (emulator) - Did not work. I did a refresh and it worked fine (including the location of the spinner)
Android 2.3 (htc mytouch) - Tried it again and it didn't work. I did a refresh and it worked fine. (the location of the spinner was at the bottom)
Kindle Fire - Did not work. I did a refresh and it worked fine (including the location of the spinner)

It appears that we have two issues here:

Location of the spinner in 2.3
Loader not showing up in 2.2 and 2.3 ( initial load ... does appear to be somewhat random )

Hope this helps!

@bmurmistro

It does indeed.

All,

You can try out my proposed fix by including:

<script src="http://jquerymobile.com/branches/3786-fix/js/"></script>

for jquery mobile

That fixes at least part of the issue, and also might speed up our scrolling a bit but really requires your review just to be sure. My grasp of possible height calculation issues is very weak.

All,

You can also test on your android devices by hitting:

http://jquerymobile.com/branches/3786-fix/docs/config/loadingMessageTextVisible.html looks good.

Looks good to me!
