I experienced this when developing an iPad webapp and tried to test it in Chrome. It turned out, that Chrome recognizes those events, but does not fire them at the moment. This is a bit frustrating, since it breaks support detection in JavaScript.

Thanks for the quick reply. It's extremely frustrating, but I guess all I can do is wait for these touch events to become available to JavaScript in Chrome.
