A custom 'tap' event JavaScript plugin for mobile browsers. Contains a fallback to using regular mouse events if touch support is not detected.
First, include the main JavaScript file in the <head> of your HTML document:
<script src="tap.js"></script>
Next create a new Tap instance, passing the element you want to use:
var el = document.getElementById('my-id'),
myTap = new Tap(el);
You can then start listening for 'tap' events using the regular JavaScript event listener syntax:
el.addEventListener('tap', tapDidOccur, false);
function tapDidOccur1 (e) {
//your code
}
You can stop listening for tap events like so:
el.removeEventListener('tap', tapDidOccur, false);
