Browser 7.3 crashes with jQuery Mobile

Hi,
it looks like the Browser 7.3 has some Problems with jQuery Mobile ([URL="http://jquerymobile.com/"]http://jquerymobile.com/[/URL])
The Browser crashes if it opens pages which use jQuery for mobile devices.
Tested with Nokia E72-1.
Try it yourself:
[URL="http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0/"]http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0/[/URL]

Tested userAgent was:
--------------------------
Mozilla/5.0 (SymbianOS/9.3; Series60/3.2 NokiaE72-1/073.001; Profile/MIDP-2.1 Configuration/CLDC-1.1)
AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko)
NokiaBrowser/7.3.1.26
Mobile Safari/533.4

Can anyone confirm this?

Bernd

Hi Bernd,

Is there some specific test that crashes the E72?
I visited that site with N8 that also has Browser 7.3 and it was working fine.

Hi Ilkka,
no specific tests, I just tried to call that page and the Browser crashes.

I ran into this problem because we use jQuery for our web pages and now also use jQuery Mobile 1.0 for web pages for mobile devices.
My Nokia Browser crashes always immediately while calling jQuery Mobile pages. First I thought about a problem with our
implementation, but then I called pages using jQuery Mobile Framework and they all crashed the Browser immediately.

I also tested with:
Nokia E72-1 and Opera 10 Mobile - runs OK
Apple IPhone 4 - runs OK
Apple IPad2 - runs OK
Samsung Galaxy Smartphone - runs OK
Samsung Galaxy Tab - runs OK

Very strange.
Currently I have no idea how to locate the problem.
Is it the jQuery Mobile Framework or really the Nokia Browser 7.3 on my E72-1 ?

OK, just played with my E72-1 an have some further information.
- with setting Java/ECMA-Script disabled the page [URL="http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0/"]http://jquerymobile.com/demos/1.0/[/URL] loads without problems.
- then enabling Java/ECMA-Script and reloading the page --> crash!

Whats with the option Java/ECMA-Script errors "generate protocol", will that be a help?
And where will the protocol be located?

Bernd

And here is there answer from Nokia to this problem:

If I understand this right, the jQuery Mobile Javascript is to large to fit into memory (or not...) ?

Whatever, it would be great to know the limitations by number and device, if there are any, don't you?
- which devices are effected (E72, ....)
- which limitations
- which Browser versions

Hi,

Finally got E72 and tested this myself - it crashed. Luckily you got the answer already from the somebody else.
If this is a memory issue following devices could be worth testing:
