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