Jquery Mobile - Display Loading Message

I've been displaying the ajax loading message when loading a php file (especially when there's a chance it won't run instantly).

I've been doing the following:

$.mobile.showPageLoadingMsg ();
$('#phpDiv').load('file.php',function(){
$('#phpDiv').trigger('create');
});
$.mobile.hidePageLoadingMsg ();

"showPageLoadingMsg" will start to display the ajax loading message and "hidePage~" will close it. The stuff in the middle loads what the php file returns into a div, then creates DOM contents for it with the trigger('create') function.
