javascript - How can I disable scrolling on the Google Maps mobile layout?

Question

I am developing mobile sites with Google Maps embedded via the Google Maps API. I have been able to stop certain types of behavior but have been unable to find a good way to stop the map from scrolling as I finger scroll down the page on the iPhone. Here is the code I am using:

<script>
function initialize() {
  var mapElem = document.getElementById("map"),
      myOptions = {
        zoom: 13,
        center: new google.maps.LatLng(41.8965,-84.063),
        navigationControl: true,
        navigationControlOptions: {
          style: google.maps.NavigationControlStyle.SMALL,
          position: google.maps.ControlPosition.TOP_RIGHT
        },
        streetViewControl: false,
        mapTypeControl: false,
        disableDoubleClickZoom: true,
        scrollwheel: false,
        backgroundColor: '#f2efe9',
        mapTypeId: google.maps.MapTypeId.ROADMAP
      },
      map = new google.maps.Map(mapElem, myOptions);
}
</script>
<script src='http://maps.google.com/maps/api/js?sensor=false&callback=initialize'></script>

Thanks in advance.

Validate whether ontouchend is available in document.

var myOptions = {
    // your other options...
    draggable: !("ontouchend" in document)
};
map = new google.maps.Map(mapElem, myOptions);
