javascript scroll event for iPhone/iPad?

Question

I can\'t seem to capture the scroll event on an iPad. None of these work, what I am doing wrong?

window.onscroll=myFunction;

document.onscroll=myFunction;

For iOS you need to use the touchmove event as well as the scroll event like this:

document.addEventListener("touchmove", ScrollStart, false);
document.addEventListener("scroll", Scroll, false);

function ScrollStart() {
    //start of scroll event for iOS
}

function Scroll() {
    //end of scroll event for iOS
    //and
    //start/end of scroll event for other browsers
}
