jQuery Mobile vmousedown event is fired when we click on the element. We can use this event for different purposes.

Syntax:

jQuery( ".selector" ).on( "vmousedown", function( event ) {  } )

Approach: First, add jQuery Mobile scripts needed for your project.

<link rel=”stylesheet” href=”http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.min.css” />
<script src=”http://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.1.min.js”></script>
<script src=”http://code.jquery.com/mobile/1.4.5/jquery.mobile-1.4.5.min.js”></script>

Example 1:

HTML




<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  
<head>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href=
  
    <script src=

    <script type="text/javascript">
        $(document).on('vmousedown', 'a', 
            function(event) {
            console.log(event)
        })
    </script>
</head>
