Enabling emphasis for mobile devices #9

Open caraya opened 11 years ago

I am working on integrating emphasis for use with iPhones and iPads. I can not seem to activate emphasis from my iPad.

Do I need to implement another event that will work on mobile devices? Has anyone already done this?

Linking and highlights will show up on Mobile and Tablet devices if in the URL.

On Desktop you can toggle Emphasis by double-tapping the SHIFT key on a keyboard.

The question is - what is a suitable way to do this on a touch-based device?

tap and double tap? To me that is the equivalent of a click and double click.
