jTap
Additional event for jQuery processing touching to screen on touch devices.
Those who are faced with adaptation of web-based applications for mobile devices knows that the event "click" is triggered with a delay of 300ms, observe which not very pleasant. In addition, click on non-delegated place of document will not work. To solve these problems and was designed by jQuery Tap Event.
Usage
Include the plugin file on the page:
<script src="jquery.tap.js"></script>
and set an event handler as follows:
$('selector').on('tap', handler);
Notes
-
A noteworthy feature of plugin is a versatility. No matter where you use the
tap
event: on a device with a touch screen or on a desktop computer - the handler will be executed disparately. -
Triggering a click manually (e.g.
$('.selector').trigger('click')
) does not trigger a tap. Likewise, triggering a tap does not trigger a click. Adapt your code to match the event expected.
