jquery - Adding JQM swipe event to listview link

Question

I am trying to find any examples on how to code jquery mobile swipe event. Although I understand the principal of using swipe and tap etc, I am struggling to get one to work. If someone could show me a small example of using swipe with a href or listview href I would be grateful. Thanks

<p>
 <ul data-role="listview" data-inset="true" data-theme="c">
  <li id="listitem"><a href="#" data-transition="flip">Requests</a><p>Box requests include, Retrieval, Return, New Intake</p></li>
  <li><a href="./speakers.php" data-transition="pop">Control Panel</a><p>Add Departments, Change Password etc</p></li>
  <li><a href="./information.html">Information</a><p>System messages, announcements are shown here</p></li>
 </ul>
</p>

<script>

pageCreate() {
  $("#listitem").swiperight() {
     $.mobile.changePage("requests.php");
  }
}

</script>
