关闭弹出窗口并导航到jQuery Mobile中的另一个页面

Question

I'm trying to close a popup / dialog when a user presses a button inside the popup, and navigate to another page (single page application, multiple "pages"). jQM 1.4.0

If I tap the YES-button inside the popup, it will navigate to #page3 wich I want but then jump back to the startpage. If I comment out the .popup("close"); it works, but I need to close the popup before I do stuff. What is wrong here?

js

$("#popupyes").on("tap", function(e)
    {
        $("#popupDialog").popup("close"); // <---- doesn't work

        //call some js-function before navigate to #page3
    });

html

<a href="#popupDialog" data-rel="popup" data-position-to="window" data-transition="pop" class="ui-btn ui-corner-all ui-shadow ui-btn-a">Button</a>

            <div data-role="popup" id="popupDialog" data-overlay-theme="a" data-theme="a" data-dismissible="false" style="max-width:400px;">
                <div data-role="header" data-theme="a">
                <h1>Head</h1>
                </div>
                <div data-role="main" class="ui-content">
                    <h3 class="ui-title">Text.</h3>
                <p>Text?</p>
                    <a href="#page3" class="ui-btn ui-corner-all ui-shadow ui-btn-inline ui-btn-a">No</a>
                    <a href="#" class="ui-btn ui-shadow ui-corner-all ui-btn-inline ui-btn-icon-right ui-icon-delete" data-rel="back">Abort</a>
                    <a id="popupyes" href="#page3" class="ui-btn ui-shadow ui-corner-all ui-btn-inline">Yes</a>
                </div>
            </div>  

Update I can use $("#popupDialog").hide(); But then it's still in memory, only hidden... or wait, will it terminate by itself after a while?

You can simply listen to popupafterclose to call any function after popup is completely closed.

$(document).on("pagecreate", function () {
    $("#popupID a").on("tap", function () {
        /* do something */
        $("#popupID").popup({
            afterclose: function () {
              /* do something */
            }
        }, "close");
    });
});
