In jQuery mobile, what's the diff between tap and vclick?

Question

which event should i use to listen to ? why use vclick? and I just don\'t know which situation to use which.

Answer 1

vclick (virtualized click) simulates the onclick event.

Tap event triggers after a quick, complete touch event single target object.

It depends what you are doing but unless you have a specific reason not to (e.g. supporting desktop and mobile with the same js) I would use tap.
