I'm trying to figure out how to solve the tapped class being assigned to the elements when scrolling, but it's taking effect too quick which I need to delay it a bit when it's actually touched instead of touched while scrolling, this is my code of how it works:
$('div, a, span').filter('[tappable][data-tappable-role]').bind('touchstart', function()
{
var self = $(this);
self.addClass(self.data('tappable-role'));
}).bind('touchend', function()
{
var self = $(this);
self.removeClass(self.data('tappable-role'));
}).bind('click', function()
{
var self = $(this),
goTo = self.data('goto');
if(typeof goTo !== 'undefined')
{
window.location = goTo;
}
});
When scrolling, it will assign the class to the element when I've barely touched it, I want to prevent this from happening unless it's properly touched (not clicked). Although I tried experimenting with the setTimeout, but that doesn't work well as it delays but it will still assign the class later on.
This is how I did it with the setTimeout:
var currentTapped;
$('div, a, span').filter('[tappable][data-tappable-role]').bind('touchstart', function()
{
clearTimeout(currentTapped);
var self = $(this);
var currentTapped = setTimeout(function()
{
self.addClass(self.data('tappable-role'));
}, 60);
}).bind('touchend', function()
{
clearTimeout(currentTapped);
var self = $(this);
self.removeClass(self.data('tappable-role'));
}).bind('click', function()
{
clearTimeout(currentTapped);
var self = $(this),
goTo = self.data('goto');
if(typeof goTo !== 'undefined')
{
window.location = goTo;
}
});
How can I do this the effective way?
- Demo #1 (with setTimeout).
- Demo #2 (with no setTimeout)
You need to view it on your iPhone/iPod/iPad or an emulator to test the fiddle.
UPDATE:
function nextEvent()
{
$(this).on('touchend', function(e)
{
var self = $(this);
self.addClass(self.data('tappable-role')).off('touchend');
})
.on('touchmove', function(e)
{
var self = $(this);
self.removeClass(self.data('tappable-role')).off('touchend');
})
.click(function()
{
var self = $(this),
goTo = self.data('goto');
if(typeof goTo !== 'undefined')
{
window.location = goTo;
}
});
}
$('div, a, span').filter('[tappable][data-tappable-role]').on('touchstart', this, nextEvent);
