not jquery mobile lol, we've got to redesign the coventry university app got different teams working on different bits such as iphone app development and android but i was given the jquery task
So they dont teach you it but want you to know it? Sounds like a waste of fees!
Nettuts has some good stuff
tell me about it half the stuff they do teach you, you already know. will check out that website now you suggested. need to look for a work placement for this year but not having much luck at the minute

Jon,
jQuery Mobile is actually pretty easy to work with, there are great examples on their site http://jquerymobile.com/ and if you are comfortable with html et al you should have no problems knocking up a site quickly.
Phonegap is used to create apps rather than sites as I understand it.
I have built a few mobile specific sites for clients for example http://www.metropolitanappliance.com/m/ and http://www.aphome.com/m/ which are based off data from a framework I wrote.
If you have any specific questions ask and if I can help I would be glad to.

Ok cheers mate, just had a look through the sites you have made and they look really good. Are you a web designer by trade?

more developer than designer but yes this is what I do for a living
Once I finish uni would prefer the development side can do the design side but not to keen on that. Have you got a personal website?

My company website is sadly lacking at the moment, like the cobblers shoes I have no time to work on it.
Fair enough mate, going to make a start on the jquery site tomorrow would you recommend using the template in dreamweaver for a starter

Dunno if this is any use to you, but this site covers loads on programming: http://thenewboston.org/tutorials.php

No, even if you are CS6 the assets are well out of date. There is a free template you can download here that you can pick apart to see how stuff works.
Ok cheers mate, will download tomorrow cheers for the help

agreed, no substitute for fiddling
Just looked at the template you suggested to download and how do I link the pages as its coming up with a loading error

Are you running it on a local server ? I use MAMP for testing as I am on a Mac but there are windows equivalents

Just tested quickly and if you try and run it from the download it gives an error but setting it up on my test server it runs just fine
We're running it on the local server on the laptop playing around with it in dreamweaver trying to link the pages using the data role

that suggests that the path you have set is incorrect
I will put it on my server instead will it work on my web server?

It works fine for me so no reason it shouldn't for you,
This is a screenshot of it running on my local dev server

It's in the page markup, from the issues you are having it sounds like whatever you are trying run the site on is not working.
You have defined a site in DW correct ?
What is the local URL you have set up to run the site ?
What do you use on your laptop to develop dynamic site, which effectively what this is ?
