jQuery.clickHold

Just a small jQuery plugin providing a .clickHold() function. The minified file is only 246 bytes.

In the following example the counter variable is incremented while #element is clicked. The callback function is called continuously (every 100ms) until the click finishes, or the cursor moves off the element.

$(document).ready(function(){
    var counter = 0;
    
    var callback = function(){
        counter++;
    }
    
    $('#element').clickHold(callback);
});

A second callback that is executed when the click ends can be supplied as the second parameter to .clickHold() like so:

$('#element').clickHold(callback, function(){
    alert('Click finished!');
});

Include a version of the jQuery library as normal, then include the plugin:

<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/jquery.min.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/to/jquery.clickhold.min.js"></script>

Have a look at the simple demo here to see the plugin in action.
