#2It's a bad idea to link to jquery.latest in a production site. $.browser is breaking.

#3"Pull to Refresh" is a poor description for the end user. I literally clicked and pulled down as I would on the iPhone simulator to use pull to refresh.

#4Great idea. I catch myself scrolling up before refreshing relatively often!
It would really be genius if the page didn't completely reload everytime but only if it really changed.

#5This is nice for those who like the pull-to-refresh trope (I'm not among them, but that's not relevant here).
Some suggestions:
1) Wouldn't it be better to have some initialization function like $('body').hook('Reloading...') to create the necessary markup instead of requiring the developer to put it on each page?
2) I'm not sure how hard this would be, but I think it would be better for the pull to refresh action to be longer and more gradual. I hit a refresh just by scrolling up a few pixels past the top when I didn't want to trigger it.
3) I'm not sure if you already support this, but it would be nice if the reload action could support a user-specified callback function instead of always reloading the whole page. That way people could use it to make AJAX calls and reload specific s instead of reloading all of the page nav and other static pieces. That's more like the behavior we see in mobile.

Ha ha spot on. The was the first thing I did, clicked at the top of the page and tried to "pull" down the page to refresh. And nothing happened.....

#7Awesome! I was looking for something like this that works on mobile.
IMO the next version needs to be able to pull slightly without refreshing. This way the user can know it's an option without necessarily firing it.

#8If I pull down on Chrome on Nexus 4 and let it refresh, it causes a continual loop of refreshing the page until I scroll down again. Was able to reproduce it a few times.

#9Unfortunately this plugin makes Home/Page up buttons unusable.

You could add Hammer.js and achieve this.
