Is there a way to remove the clicking lag on mobile touch devices?

Question

When viewing a web site on a mobile device (iPad, Galaxy Tab) there\'s always a lag when I click an element (regular link or anything else that is made clickable using javas

Answer 1

I use detection if the device support touch like modernizer. i fill a var called touchClick with the options 'click' or 'touchend' bases on the outcome if it is a touch device or not. In jquery I simply call:

 $('element').on(touchClick, function(e){ //do something });

It has a very small footprint.
