After upgrading to jQuery Mobile 1.1.1 earlier today (7/13/2012) I noticed that all of my Custom Select menus no longer show the placeholder text on page load. Is there something I need to do differently in 1.1.1 to show the placeholder text in custom select menus? Help!?!?
Here's a sample of my code:
<div data-role="fieldcontain" class="ui-hide-label no-field-separator">
<label for="ceiling" class="select" data-theme="a">Ceiling</label>
<select name="ceiling" id="ceiling" data-theme="a" data-native-menu="false" class="required">
<option data-placeholder="true">Ceiling (Yes/No)</option>
<option value="Yes">Ceiling: Yes</option>
<option value="No">Ceiling: No</option>
</select>
</div>
