Multitouch events

This wiki page will be used to describe the current state of the touch events being implemented, and to discuss what the format of these events should be, what kind of information they should provide, etc.


Current events

  • MozTouchDown
  • MozTouchMove
  • MozTouchRelease

Currently they inherit from MouseEvent and adds a streamId property which uniquely identifies a tracking point. This id is provided by the OS and is valid only while the same touch point is being tracked. After its finger release, the id can be (and will be) reused
