Re: outdated web2py plugin for jquery mobile

Will do asap.  The one that ships with admin is updated, the one on web2py.com/plugins is not.

Hi,

I'm new to web2py (and to python in fact) and was very excited about the ease of use that seemed evident in web2py for building my HTML5 app. As I had previously determined to use jQuery Mobile, I was even more excited to see that there was a plugin for that. However, downloading the plugin from http://web2py.com/plugins/plugin_jqmobile/about always resulted in a blank page - the plugin did not work. On closer inspection, some of the pathing in the layout.html file was wrong, but fixing that still did not make it work. 

I was ready to give it up when I noticed that web2py 2.1 was out and that it had a mobile admin interface that was in fact using the jQuery Mobile plugin! However, still, installing the plugin in my custom app from the app creation wizard or even downloading it from the mobile admin page at http://192.168.1.11:8000/admin/plugin_jqmobile/about resulted in the same old outdated version of the plugin. I finally scrapped the install and just copied all the plugin files from the /admin/ app to my web2py app - it now works.

To make a long story short - it would be great if the plugin download could be updated both on the mobile admin page and at http://web2py.com/plugins/plugin_jqmobile/about to spare someone else the frustration I went through trying to get it to work! Thanks!
