title: JavaScript Disable "open","open new tab" and "copy" long press on anchor tag in iOS 8 safari
body: <p>I am trying to prevent "open", "open new tab", "add to read list" and "copy" options on anchor tag long press in iOS 8. I tried with <code>-webkit-touch-callout:none</code>, it's preventing only "save image" option only. The following code I tried but no use. I don't want to use <code>pointer-events:none</code>, on clicking of anchor tag I need to open one light box popup. Any help is appreciated</p>
  
  <p>I tried the following options:</p>
  
  <pre><code>$('a').on("touchstart", function(e) {         
     e.preventDefault();
  });
  
  $('a').bind("touchstart", function(e) {       
     e.preventDefault();
  });
  </code></pre>
