Map click Event broken with 3.6compact version of API

Question

I think the map OnClick event is broken when using the JavaScript 3.6compact version on smartphones.

Add this to your Init function..

map.on("click", function (evt) {
         alert("onClick Event beginning. SHOULD ONLY HAPPEN ONCE..");
  });

This happens twice when running it on my smartphone.

I've been fighting with this problem, too. It persists in 3.7. The double-click doesn't happen on my Android tablets (4.1), just Android phones (2.3 and 4.1).

It's pretty bad, because I am using dojox mobile Views. So, for example, when you select a basemap in the basemap gallery, the second event might fire right on the map zoom button, or show a popup infoWindow on the map!

Any progress on a fix for this?

Here's your fix:

Just tested your code and you are 100% correct.
On desktop browsers, it only fires once.
On all the mobile browsers (iOS4, iOS5, Android 2, 4.0.2) I can test, it fires twice.
