Mobile Scroller

[Tom Glod]

Just confirming that this has been solved, putting the
mobilescroller commands in the resizestack handler is the solution.
What I did was I put "resizestack" to be called from "orientationchanged",
which for some reason it seemed like a good idea at the time :/

Thanks Ralph.

Tom
