I have the following code which lets me hide submit buttons once users click on it (so that they don't click multiple times while the form is processing). It works perfectly on desktop and android, but doesn't work on iPhone. My jQuery knowledge is limited. Can someone please advise on how I can fix it?

<script>
jQuery(document).ready(function() {
  jQuery('#gform_next_button_5_85', this).on("click", function() {
    jQuery('#gform_next_button_5_85').css('display','none');
    jQuery('#gform_previous_button_5_85').css('display','none');
    jQuery('.pleasewait').css('display','block');
  });

  jQuery('#gform_submit_button_5', this).on("click", function() {
    jQuery('#gform_submit_button_5').css('display','none');
    jQuery('#gform_previous_button_5').css('display','none');
    jQuery('.pleasewait2').css('display','block');
  });
});
</script>

try read up on `touchstart` or `touchend` – Carsten Løvbo Andersen Oct 13 '17 at 07:34
check here [How to bind 'touchstart' and 'click' events but not respond to both?](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/7018919/how-to-bind-touchstart-and-click-events-but-not-respond-to-both) – Masivuye Cokile Oct 13 '17 at 07:36
@CarstenLøvboAndersen will this work on desktop as well? or is touchstart and touched for mobile only? – Shtarley Oct 13 '17 at 07:36

@Shtarley you can combine `"click touchstart"` – Carsten Løvbo Andersen Oct 13 '17 at 07:37
@CarstenLøvboAndersen thank you.... so will I basically replace .on("click", function() with .on("click touchstart", function() Or will I need to make more adjustments to my code? – Shtarley Oct 13 '17 at 07:41
@Shtarley check the link I provided above see how to use both – Masivuye Cokile Oct 13 '17 at 07:42
Thanks @MasivuyeCokile I am busy going through it, just a little confused as I have very limited JS knowledge. – Shtarley Oct 13 '17 at 07:46

click should work on mobile too, with delay but should work - it could be another issue here – sTx Oct 13 '17 at 08:01
