I am building a website and in testing it i find that the when i access it through a ipad the touch feature will not activate the links. Do i need to change the code to get it to work with the touch screen??

What are you talking about? I have made a lot of websites now and I have never experienced that the touch feature in my iPad or iPhone don't work on my websites? Can you send me a live preview of the site, or a sample of your code?

First thing you should try to isolate the error.
- Are you sure the issue is in the website back-end and not maybe in the device?
- Are you sure it works on computers?
As Anima said, the code would probably be a big hint in helping you find the solution.

It was in the html. when i built it i did not take into account the touch screen and change add the code needed. My bad. :wacko: My coffee was gone by then. i do networking and some web pages but getting into this mobile pages and apps is all new to me. Guess i should brush up on some of my older programming skills. Thanks for the help

You don't need to introduce any kind of code for touch, The touch is integrated.
