javascript - Android/ Phonegap - onClick() not working

Question

I am using phonegap and am trying to detect the onClick, however Android seems to completely ignore it, below is what I am trying:

<select name="func" onclick="StartButtons();" data-native-menu="true">

I have tried several variations of the onClick include javascript, jQuery etc. however none of these seem to work.

I have noticed that onChange works, however this is not of much use to me as I need to use a prompt asking the user to confirm the change, if it is no then do nothing. However, using onchange still changes the item within the dropdown.

Can someone please help with this?

I had the same problem with jQuery, Android seems to ignore the click event in javascript. Originally, my code with jQuery looks like this:

$("#element").click(function () { alert("message"); });

I had to change it to:

$("#element").on("touchend", function () { alert("message"); });

Not sure if you're using jQuery at all, but hope this helps.
