Answer 1

I want to thank all for help. I finally found the solution after intensive stackoverflow research. For help other :

In the javascript/html, you can avoid dealing with the longpress event.

The solution was given long time ago : Preventing default context menu on longpress / longclick in mobile Safari (iPad / iPhone)

I did it and it is just perfect. Thanks and thanks again.

You could make UIWebView as a super class to one of your custom class, extend it.. and override touchesBegan.. methods from UIView class..
