Detect iPhone scroll using jQuery

Question

I'm just looking for a listener who finds a finger swipe on the touch device.

For example:

if (swipe.direction == 'left' ) { function(); } 

Answer 1

With jQueryMobile, you can use multiple events like swipe or even swipeleft , swiperight , tap , etc.

Answer 2

You can use this jquery plugin

Answer 3

A more convenient plugin for handling swipes (if that's all you need) is Touch Swipe.

I found the touchwipe to be pretty rubbish, and I always find the jQueryMobile way difficult when all you want is this functionality.
