How to detect android pinch zoom in javascript

I would like to know if there's any way to detect that a pinch zoom event has taken place. I could achieve it by using this event binding for iOS

$(document).bind('gesturechange',function(event){
     zoomAdjust();
});

Is there any such event for android devices?

Have you tried that in Android? Usually the events are the same. – ThinkingStiff Commented Jul 17, 2012 at 6:30

There is a great js ready for this called Hammer JS

There is also another great jQuery plugin called TouchSwipe.
