Here is a jQuery function to handle touch. var clickTime = new Date() ; var clickSP = 300 ; $(your_link).bind("touchstart", function(e){ var nowTime = new Date(), t = parseInt(nowTime.getTime() - clickTime.getTime()); if ((t < clickSP) && (e.originalEvent.touches.length == 1)) { //fire off your hover event } clickTime = nowTime ; }); It has more uses than just firing off hover events, just FYI. ;) Best, Karl DeSaulniers Design Drumm http://designdrumm.com ______________________________________________________________________ css-discuss [css-d@lists.css-discuss.org] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ List policies -- http://css-discuss.org/policies.html Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/
