Tripple tapping fires double tap event twice. about jquery-touch-events HOT 7 CLOSED

This is the expected behaviour. If you need to prevent this in your application, you can adjust the doubletap_int threshold. By default, it's set to 500ms, but obviously 250ms may be better if you're worried about users triple tapping elements.

Since the interval of 500ms is defaulted for good reason, this isn't an issue with the framework. You will need to handle / limit doubletap events in your application.

The interval is not the problem. You should add a setting called cooldown which would be the time between allowed taps.

For example, if you had a cooldown of 500ms, you couldn't use doubletap until 500ms after the previous doubletap.

OK, I had another comment about this issue the other week. I will add a cooldown setting as you suggest, rather than assuming users will handle this in their own code. Thanks for the suggestion.

Great, thanks for the update. I think this is a problem that many people are facing, and the cooldown should solve that problem.

OK, I have added in a cooling off period to doubletap events, and the demo shows this to be working as expected:
