I'm using Fennec Firefox on mobile and I'm having this problem where my the page refreshes on the slightest touch. I'd like to turn this gesture off all together. I have done some research and found this code:
document.addEventListener('touchstart', function(event) {
// Check for a swipe down gesture to prevent refresh action
if (event.touches.length > 0) {
// Prevent default action
event.preventDefault();
}
}, { passive: false });
document.addEventListener('touchmove', function(event) {
// Prevent default action to avoid refresh
event.preventDefault();
}, { passive: false });
I put it into a java script extension and it worked, but then I wasn't able to scroll up or down. I don't know anything about java or python, so if someone could give me a hint or point me in the right direction that would be helpful. I am also looking through the source code of Firefox looking for answers.
