title: Trigger mousewheel event with touch device
body: <p>I have a event bind to mousewheel in which I use the event to make some calculations, I would like to be able to use the same function to perform the same calculations from touch devices.</p>
  
  <p>my code is like:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('#element').bind("mousewheel DOMMouseScroll", function(event) {
              event.preventDefault();
              if (event.originalEvent.wheelDelta &gt; 0 || event.originalEvent.detail &lt; 0)
                  //do stuff
              else {
                 //do other stuff
              }
          });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>EDIT:</strong> As from the comment I understand i was not completely clear, my goal is to obtain a value like "<strong>wheelDelta</strong>" that make me recognize if the user is scrolling (touchmoving) up or down</p>
