I'm making a web app and I'm trying to implement swiping.  The following works on the iphone, but on the android it seems to be having problems, in that I have to swipe 2-4 times for it to actually swipe.

What is the solution for getting swiping to work correctly on the android?

$('body').on('swipeleft swiperight',function(event){

if (event.type == 'swipeleft')

{

$.mobile.changePage('#leftPage',{transition:'slide'})

}

else if (event.type == 'swiperight')

{

$.mobile.changePage('#rightPage',{transition:'slide',reverse:true})

}

})
