How to bind 'touchstart' and 'click' events but not respond to both?

Question

I\'m working on a mobile web site that has to work on a variety of devices. The one\'s giving me a headache at the moment are BlackBerry.

We need to support both key

Answer 1

For simple features, just recognize touch or click I use the following code:

var element = $("#element");

element.click(function(e)
{
  if(e.target.ontouchstart !== undefined)
  {
    console.log( "touch" );
    return;
  }
  console.log( "no touch" );
});

This will return "touch" if the touchstart event is defined and "no touch" if not. Like I said this is a simple approach for click/tap events just that.
