iOS UIWEBVIEW double click detection code ?

I am trying to detect a double tap on UIWebView as per link mentioned above. The problem is that it compiles and runs well, but when it executes

[self __touchesBegan:touches withEvent:event]; it crashes with unrecognised selector.

when i put mouse over self, i see it to be pointing to UIWebBrowserView * Where does this class come from ? What is that term "UIWebDocumentView" meaning here in the code ?

please help, thanks in advance.

In my experience, you should consider the UIWebView a black box. It's not a good idea to call private API, overwrite private API, swizzle methods, or any other shenanigans.

Is there a way that you can redesign your application so that this will not be a problem? If the fundamental functionality of your application is dependent on processing touches in the web view, you might want to go back and do things differently.
