In an effort to better organize our JQuery Mobile PhoneGap application I would like to be able to use tags on the new page and have that JS come in when the page is brought
I also had a similar problem that wasn't solved by fixing the placement of the tags. It seems that if you have a compile error in your code (in my case, putting int instead of var when declaring a for-loop variable), the entire script will not be loaded and will throw no errors to the log (at least, not to the LogCat in Eclipse's Android simulator). Be sure to run your scripts through an error-checker like JSLint first.
