$(ID).data('object') doesn't seem to work in mobile

$(‘#MyComponentId’).data(‘object’) only works for several desktop components, and it returns something slightly different than what .data(‘component’) returns for these components — for most components, including all mobile components, what you want to get access to is the Component object, and this is returned through either skuid.$C(‘MyComponentId’) if your component has a Unique Id, or element.data(‘component’) if you have a jQuery-wrapped element reference in context.

Zach,

Does this mean that I can replace element.data(‘object’) with element.data(‘component’) and get the same results?

No, it does not. Where .data(‘object’) is available, it usually returns something different than .data(‘component’)

Hmm, unfortunate. Ok.
