jquery mobile - How to stop JQM from styling a page?

Question

I have a JQM app with one specific page that I do not want styled.

All I have found so far is data-role='none' - but I don't want to have to apply that to every element on the page... Is there a way to turn if off just for this one page?

You can use data-enhance="false" in conjunction with $.mobile.ignoreContentEnabled=true to stop the auto-enhancement that jQuery Mobile does to a pseudo-page:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0-rc.1/jquery.mobile-1.1.0-rc.1.min.css" />
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.7.1.min.js"></script>
<script>
$(document).on('mobileinit', function () {
    $.mobile.ignoreContentEnabled = true;
});
</script>
<script src="http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.1.0-rc.1/jquery.mobile-1.1.0-rc.1.min.js"></script>

<div data-enhance="false" data-role="page">
    ...
</div>?

The reason you have to change the ignoreContentEnabled flag is because it's CPU intensive to search parent elements for the data-attribute, so this is turned-off by default.
