$( "#aboutPage" ).on( "pagebeforecreate", function( event ) {
  alert( "This page was just inserted into the dom!" );
});

Note that by binding to pagebeforecreate, you can manipulate markup before jQuery Mobile's default widgets are auto-initialized. For example, say you want to add data attributes via JavaScript instead of in the HTML source, this is the event you'd use.
