dojox/mobile/ViewController:63 Uncaught ReferenceError?: url is not defined

Trying to get url from the event, but not there.

r24796 has partial fix for this, but still gettin the following error during event dispatch: TypeError?: Cannot read property 'dispatchEvent' of undefined.

This is occurring on tests when transitioning to a view loaded from remote view content is using url.

Have to head home now, will try debugging further later, unless u beat me to it.

See dojox/mobile/tests/test_transition-to-dynamic-view.html for a non-demos testcase that reproduces the problem.

[Chris Mitchell]

With this latest revision, ViewController? now gets to the _instantiate function() when running test_transition-to-dynamic-view.
However, I can't see how this test was working before dmachi's TransitionEvent? changes, because: the items.json file it's referencing is in the old ItemFileReadStore? JSON data format, having a top level object, with "items:" array of child objects. The _instantiate function is looking for what appears to be jsonSchema formatted data or something similar...raw JSON with type information as properties. Is it possible that the json file format should have been changed to a new format a while ago, and this testcase was broken?

reassigning to ykami for more background info on the file format for dynamic views...

I think it's already been fixed.
