functions into one!
A bit further down, we see the actual content laid out. We've put in two inputs, number1
and number2, and between them, our two buttons. We've made use of a controlgroup,
so that the buttons group together, rather than separately. You'll notice that each button

Summary
Using jQuery Mobile, one can quickly take a bare-bones application and make it look
like it was professionally designed. You can also make quick and pretty “informational”
applications (i.e., an application that serves as the program for a conference or a tour

them—your imagination is the only limit!
