HTML5 Mobile JavaScript: Creating the Form View - I need help!

I'm having trouble with getting my code working. You can check it out here:

http://pastebin.com/raw.php?i=mjZhy8Wb

The console throws one error = Cannot set property 'new_form' of undefined

I tried copying the code as best I could but I still couldn't get it to work... any suggestions?

That means that App.views is undefined when you try to assign App.views.new_form.

Near the top of your code update to this and it should fix it (or change the error)

var App = {
  stores: {},
  views: {}
}

I still can't save a note :/

Heres a quick video... The console is throwing no errors (besides the XML request), but the note doesn't save on Safari, or Chrome:

Heres my code:

EDIT: Nevermind, I fixed it by putting my files on site44.com - highly recommended!
