The jQuery Mobile framework includes a set of CSS-based transitions that can be applied to any object or page change event. By default, when navigating to a new page, the framework applies the right to left slide transition effect. When via the Back button, the slide transition direction is reversed.
To set a custom transition effect, add the data-transition attribute to the link. Possible values include:
<a href="index.html" data-transition="pop">I'll pop</a>
