<p>The <code>.live()</code> method for binding event handlers uses this property to determine how to perform its searches. Plug-ins which perform similar tasks may also find the property useful. This property contains a string representing the matched set of elements, but if DOM traversal methods have been called on the object, the string may not be a valid jQuery selector expression. For this reason, the value of <code>.selector</code> is generally most useful immediately following the original creation of the object. Consequently, the <code>.live()</code> method should only be used in this scenario. </p>

Big update: In starting markup, pages should now be identified with the attribute data-role="page". This allows us to then add ui-page programatically, hiding all non-active pages, and apply ui-page-active to one page at a time to show it. mobile.js is updated to find pages by this attribute now, instead of ui-page class. fixes issue 32 2010-09-18 16:20:35 +00:00			`<div data-role="page">`
updated markup to use data-role attrs in place of classes for header/content/footer 2010-09-21 14:58:54 +00:00			`<div data-role="header">`
