Cancel current touch events until next touchstart

Question

I have to simulate longpress using javascript.

var timer;

$(element).on('touchend',function(e){

 clearTimeout(timer);


});

 $(element).on('touchstart',function(e){

  timer=setTimeout(function()
    {
        //some action
    },1000);

    return true;

});

When the action is triggered which is displaying a context menu, after that if finger is lifted then at touchend event the context menu hides . I want to avoid this.I want cancel all touch events until next touchstart What should i do. The problem is only in ios.
