Click event on Android doesn't work (sometimes do)

[Idan]

I am having problem with catching  click events / tap events on my Android device. I've tested it for over a few hours.

$("#button").click(function(e) {
            alert("as");
        });

In the simulator I get the alert, whether on my mobile device I don't get the alert. Sometimes it works, but as for now, it doesn't. I've spent hours on that simple thing and can't solve the problem. I rebuilt the project but still the problem exists.

Any suggestions?

Update: it seems like a bug. When I build it, it sometimes work, sometimes don't without me touching the code.

Are you using Kendo? If so, you can define the click event in html like this:

<a id="mobile-button" data-click="logClick" data-role="button">Trigger Event</a>

Clicking on the button results in "logClick" being fired.

I hope this helps!

Thanks for the quick answer, I will check it out. Can I pass parameters to the called function using this method?

[Jan-Dirk]

Not sure, but you can't pass parameters the way you are currently handling the click either :)

I think the function logClick could look like this to handle system parameters:

function logClick(e) {
   // handle the e parameter
   console.log(e);
}

The data-click works like a charm :)

Thanks!
