    <p>Never mind; just found this at the top of the documentation:</p> <blockquote> <p>Note: Links styled like buttons have all the same visual options as true form-based buttons below, but there are a few important differences. Link-based buttons aren't part of the button plugin and only just use the underlying buttonMarkup plugin to generate the button styles so the form button methods (enable, disable, refresh) aren't supported. If you need to disable a link-based button (or any element), it's possible to apply the disabled class ui-disabled yourself with JavaScript to achieve the same effect.</p> </blockquote> <p>Although this doesn't actually solve my problem (of how to update the button text) - at least it answers why the "refresh" method isn't supported.</p> <p><strong>Edit:</strong></p> <p>I am aware that I can <em>directly</em> update the text on the button; I said as much in the original question:</p> <blockquote> <p><strong>I know that I can work around this problem by manipulating the .ui-btn-text span that's nested inside the button</strong>; however, this seems like the wrong approach as it requires explicit knowledge of the internal workings of jquery Mobile.</p> </blockquote> <p>I was hoping to avoid this solution by somehow getting the "refresh" method to work. However, based on the snippet of documentation that I later found (and have quoted above), I realised that using the "refresh" method was not an option.</p> <p>Given that; I was still hoping there was another way to update the text on the button without explicitly addressing the generated DOM elements (i.e. by using the jQM API) - but so far as I can see, there's no API method to do so. Updating the DOM elements seems like the only way to achieve the desired result.</p> <p>Both of the selectors provided by @Phil Pafford (<code>$(this).find('span span')</code>) and @OmarNew2PHP (<code>$button.children().children()</code>) are (in my opinion) incorrect. Yes, they work perfectly in the example given above, however, if you add an icon to the button:</p> <pre><code>&lt;a id="myCrapButton" href="#" data-icon="delete"&gt;Click me!&lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>Then jQM adds in an additional <code>span</code> to display that icon (anchor tag attributes trimmed for brevity):</p> <pre><code>&lt;a href="#"&gt; &lt;span class="ui-btn-inner"&gt; &lt;span class="ui-btn-text"&gt;Delete&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class="ui-icon ui-icon-delete ui-icon-shadow"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;/span&gt; &lt;/a&gt; </code></pre> <p>Using the selectors above will add the text to <strong>both</strong> of the inner <code>span</code> tags. This is another example of why I was hoping to avoid updating the DOM directly - because you can't (and shouldn't have to) predict what jQM is going to generate.</p> <p>But, at the end of the day, it looks like the best way of updating the text inside the button is using the method I was hoping to avoid:</p> <pre><code>$button.click(function() { $(".ui-btn-text", this).text("Awesome Button"); }); </code></pre> <p>Thanks for your answers.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
