Why/when do I have to tap twice to trigger click on iOS

Question

Ok I feel like I\'m crazy...

I\'m looking at Mobile Safari on iOs 6.0. I can\'t seem to establish any rhyme or reason as to when tapping on an element will trigger

Answer 1

you can use ontouchstart instead of onclick event on element and call the function focus() on this element if it is input :

document.getElementById('plain-div').addEventListener('touchstart', function() {
   //write body of your function here
    alert(“hi”);
  // if input needs double tap 
  this.focus();

});
