popup opens for a second then immediately closes when opening a popup from the pageshow event.

[MartyBJones]

I noticed that if I load a popup from the pageshow event it opens for a second then immediately closes. I see this issue on the Iphone 4s, Safari browser on laptop, and in Chrome. This issue does not occur in Firefox. I did notice that the problem does not occur if I don't disable popup history. This works fine in Jquery Mobile 1.2 but is broken in Jquery Mobile 1.3.

I see that another user is having the same issue (5775). I borrowed their script http://jsbin.com/onuduw/5/edit to reproduce the issue.

Here is my init section:

$(document).bind( "mobileinit", function(){
$.mobile.popup.prototype.options.history = true;
});

If it set this property to false then the popup stops working correctly.

Thanks for submitting the issue. Like you said, #5775 is the same issue so I am closing this ticket as duplicate.
