Menu
When a visitor clicks on an image the click event will be triggered. However when someone touches the image, that same click event will be triggered, even if a touchstart event is available as well.
I like a different behavior for an actual click (mouse) event and a touch event. The strange thing is, even a mouseup event is triggered when used on a smartphone. Is there anyway you can separate the mouse from the touch events?

The touchstart event occurs when the user touches an element. But a click event is fired when the user clicks an element.
Just adding return false; at the end of the on("click touchstart") event function can solve this problem.
The touchstart event occurs when the user touches an element. Note: The touchstart event will only work on devices with a touch screen. Tip: Other events related to the touchstart event are: touchend - occurs when the user removes the finger from an element.
If you just need to trigger a click event, you can omit the line that begins with for( . @Parag: Read it again. The loop is to click the same link 50 times, which is what it does.
event.preventDefault();
Did the trick, hope this helps people!

you can normalize an event..
See my answer to this question:

You can also look in the jQuery mobile source code to find inspiration: http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.0.1/jquery.mobile-1.0.1.js Start at line 982
/*
* "events" plugin - Handles events
*/
(function( $, window, undefined ) {
// add new event shortcuts
$.each( ( "touchstart touchmove touchend orientationchange throttledresize " +
"tap taphold swipe swipeleft swiperight scrollstart scrollstop" ).split( " " ), function( i, name ) {
$.fn[ name ] = function( fn ) {
return fn ? this.bind( name, fn ) : this.trigger( name );
};
$.attrFn[ name ] = true;
});
....
Look at the tap event: (line 1049)
$.event.special.tap = {
