Answer 1

I had Problems with the accepted answer here, because swiping wasn't detected when origin and target of the swipe were not the same.

Here maybe an easier answer, where i directly override the jquery handleSwipe event (based on jquery.mobile-1.4.5) and append it with a vertical swipe, called up and down:

(function( $, window, undefined ) {

    //custom handleSwipe with swiperight, swipeleft, swipeup, swipedown
    $.event.special.swipe.handleSwipe = function( start, stop, thisObject, origTarget ) {
        if ( stop.time - start.time < $.event.special.swipe.durationThreshold ) {
            var horSwipe = Math.abs( start.coords[0] - stop.coords[0] ) > $.event.special.swipe.horizontalDistanceThreshold;
            var verSwipe = Math.abs( start.coords[1] - stop.coords[1] ) > $.event.special.swipe.verticalDistanceThreshold;
            if( horSwipe != verSwipe ) {
                var direction;
                if(horSwipe)
                    direction = start.coords[0] > stop.coords[0] ? "swipeleft" : "swiperight";
                else
                    direction = start.coords[1] > stop.coords[1] ? "swipeup" : "swipedown";
                $.event.trigger($.Event( "swipe", { target: origTarget, swipestart: start, swipestop: stop }), undefined, thisObject);
                $.event.trigger($.Event( direction, { target: origTarget, swipestart: start, swipestop: stop }), undefined, thisObject);
                return true;
            }
            return false;
        }
        return false;
    }

    //do binding
    $.each({
        swipeup: "swipe.up",
        swipedown: "swipe.down"
    }, function( event, sourceEvent ) {
        $.event.special[ event ] = {
            setup: function() {
                $( this ).bind( sourceEvent, $.noop );
            },
            teardown: function() {
                $( this ).unbind( sourceEvent );
            }
        };
    }); 
})( jQuery, this );
