HTML5 DIV flashes on tap

Question

When receving an onclick event from a DIV as a result of a tap on the iPad, The DIV automatically flashes to a dark color to give the user feedback for the tap. Is there any way to prevent this flash from occurring?

Answer 1

It's because there are events on the element. Just set:

div {
  -webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0,0,0,0);
}
