As many people already know, Safari is going to be the next Internet Explorer and needs more and more customizations to work as well as the other Browsers. In this case, i had a problem with Safari using the on click function of jQuery. Let’s come directly to the solution.

The following does not work for all Safari mobiles / tablets

$(document).on('click', '#anyHTMLelement', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    // Some code to be executed after #anyHTMLelement is Touched or clicked
});

This will work well for all Safari mobiles / tablets

$(document).on('click touchend', '#anyHTMLelement', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault();
    // Some code to be executed after #anyHTMLelement is Touched or clicked
});

Instead of touchend you can use another trigger options too. Here you get a list with their names and when they are triggered according to MDN:

  • touchstart
    The touchstart event is fired when a touch point is placed on the touch surface.
  • touchend
    The touchend event is fired when a touch point is removed from the touch surface.
  • touchmove
    The touchmove event is fired when a touch point is moved along the touch surface.
  • touchcancel
    The touchcancel event is fired when a touch point has been disrupted in an implementation-specific manner (for example, too many touch points are created).
