Refreshing listview and checkboxes in JQuery Mobile

Question

I am adding <li> and checkBoxes dynamically in web page i am usinh JQuery Mobile but after adding it cannot view properly i tried with $('#contactList').listview('refresh') but it shows error that listview is not a function Here is my HTML Part

<ul data-role="listview" data-inset="true" data-filter="true" data-filter-placeholder="Search" id="contactList">
                </ul>

and JS Part that i add dynamically is

$('#contactList').append('<li>\
                    <input type="checkbox" name="'+contactId+'" id="'+contactId+'" class="custom" />\
                    <label for="checkbox-5a">\
                        <span class="span2 contact-name">\
                        '+contactName+'\
                        </span>\
                        <span class="contact-image">\
                            <img src="'+contactImage+'"/>\
                        </span>\
                    </label>\
                </li>')

Answer 1

You should use same name in label-for as the checkbox name

your code is

$('#contactList').append('<li>\
                <input type="checkbox" name="'+contactId+'" id="'+contactId+'" class="custom" />\
                <label for="checkbox-5a">\
                    <span class="span2 contact-name">\
                    '+contactName+'\
                    </span>\
                    <span class="contact-image">\
                        <img src="'+contactImage+'"/>\
                    </span>\
                </label>\
            </li>')

But you should write this

$('#contactList').append('<li>\
                <input type="checkbox" name="'+contactId+'" id="'+contactId+'" class="custom" />\
                <label for="'+contactId+'">\
                    <span class="span2 contact-name">\
                    '+contactName+'\
                    </span>\
                    <span class="contact-image">\
                        <img src="'+contactImage+'"/>\
                    </span>\
                </label>\
            </li>')
