swipe events break footer links

[mattlmueller]

This may be related to some existing issues, but I have swipeleft/swiperight events on a div to change photos. Iphone3gs works fine, but on an Android HTC desire, after a swipe event, the footer buttons break. The screen shows a blank (grey) page.

Can you post a very simplified test page on jsBin that illusutrates this? Template: http://jsbin.com/orogo5/edit

Here is a link to the exmaple problem: http://www.productscape.com/test1/jqm-fail-swipeevent-htc-desire.html

And a link to quick Video showing the steps to reproduce: http://www.productscape.com/test1/jqm/

Here is a link to a QR code to the sample page so that you do not have to type in the url on your mobile screen :)

oops - did NOT mean to close the issue...

[mattlmueller]

Note- the reason we have used some standard javascript non-jQuery code is because we have been working on this for a while and wanted to eliminate any dependencies that might have caused this issue...the issue shows up regardless.

It looks like this issue does not happen when using standard javascript touch (touchstart,touchmove and touchend) events.

[mattlmueller]

correction - issue IS still present using standard touch events.

I am closing this one since it strongly related or maybe even duplicate of #1746 which has more detailed info.

@mattlmueller - if you still experience the problem can you comment on that issue.
Please include a JSBin or JSFiddle test page (the examples above are offline) and information like which version of jQuery Mobile and Android.
