Single finger scroll for Webpage - what technology? working example?

For iOS-style scrolling on touch-aware devices (works great on desktop, too) iScroll is a great solution.

Point the touch-device in question to this demo url : http://lab.cubiq.org/iscroll/examples/simple/

Features Include:

• Pinch / Zoom
• Pull up/down to refresh
• Improved speed and momentum
• Snap to element
• Customizable scrollbars

-Via the iScroll 4 docs

Ill let you work out the nuances, but something like this gives you an idea

$(function(){

    var dragYStart;
    var dragScrollStart;
    $(window).one('mousedown',startDrag);

function startDrag(e){
    dragYStart = e.pageY;
    dragScrollStart = $(window).scrollTop();
    $(window).on('mousemove',drag);
    $(window).one('mouseup',stopDrag);
}
function stopDrag(e){
    $(window).off('mousemove',drag);
    $(window).one('mousedown',startDrag);
}
function drag(e){
    var delta = dragYStart - e.pageY;
    $(window).scrollTop(dragScrollStart + delta);
}

});

see example
