register virtual taphold event for jQuery mobile Flip toggle switch - jquery-mobile

Question

I can't figure out how to register the taphold event for a Flip toggle switch. I tried as described here with the following code.
<div data-role="fieldcontain">
Sex
<select name="sex" id="id" data-role="slider">
<option value="off">Male</option>
<option value="on">Female</option>
</select>
</div>
$('#id').live('taphold', function(){
console.log("taphold");
});
And, because the actual <select> tag is hidden, and the switch is rendered by following html
<div role="application" class="ui-slider ui-slider-switch ui-btn-down-c ui-btn-corner-all ui-focus">
<span class="ui-slider-label ui-slider-label-a ui-btn-active ui-btn-corner-all" role="img" style="width: 100%">Female</span>
<span class="ui-slider-label ui-slider-label-b ui-btn-down-c ui-btn-corner-all" role="img" style="width: 0%">Male</span>
<div class="ui-slider-inneroffset">
<a href="#" class="ui-slider-handle ui-btn ui-shadow ui-btn-corner-all ui-slider-handle-snapping ui-focus ui-btn-up-c" data-corners="true" data-shadow="true" data-iconshadow="true" data-wrapperels="span" data-theme="c" role="slider" aria-valuemin="0" aria-valuemax="1" aria-valuenow="on" aria-valuetext="Female" title="Female" aria-labelledby="eforms_patient_sex-label" style="left: 100%">
<span class="ui-btn-inner ui-btn-corner-all">
<span class="ui-btn-text"/>
</span>
</a>
</div>
</div>
Which is a sibling of aboves <select> tag I also tried this
$('#id').parent().find('[role="application"]').live('taphold', function(){
console.log("taphold");
});
But nether did work. So...
How to register the virtual taphold event for jQuery mobile Flip toggle switch?
//edit
I added a onclick function to the <div> tag, via opera dragonfly, and it worked. So It seams that registering the event to the <div> is the right approach. But it does not work, with the code above.

Answer 1

The event is called taphold not tabhold.
