Tapping on in Mobile Safari

Question

Tapping on does not auto-focus linked in Mobile Safari but If an empty function as clickhandler is defined like this

document.getElem         


        

Answer 1

In iOS 7, this issue still persists without any of the workarounds working for me.

My solution was to combine the click event with touchend:

var handler = function(e) { /* do stuff */ };
$("ol input[type=checkbox] ~ label")
  .on('touchend', handler)
  .on('click', handler);

Some helpful info in this JQuery issue: http://bugs.jquery.com/ticket/5677 Especially the part where it says technically there is no click event on mobile.
