UIWebView, enable touch hold save image, like in mobile Safari

I'd like to enable Save Image and Copy when a user touch-holds an image in a UIWebView in my app. Is there a property that will enable this or will I need to write some special methods to accomplish this?

Thanks for reading!

UIImage * downloadImage = [[UIImage alloc] initWithContentsOfFile:path];
    UIImageWriteToSavedPhotosAlbum(downloadImage,nil, nil, nil);
    [downloadImage release];

    UIAlertView * alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:@"Saved" message:@"Wallpaper saved to your Gallery." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:@"Dismiss" otherButtonTitles:nil, nil];

    [alert show];
    [alert release];

Add this whole code to your long press method, it will save your image in gallery.

You can start off by creating and attaching the UILongPressGestureRecognizer instance to the button.

 UILongPressGestureRecognizer *longPress = [[UILongPressGestureRecognizer alloc] initWithTarget:self action:@selector(longPress:)];
 [self.button addGestureRecognizer:longPress];
 [longPress release];

And then implement the method that handles the gesture

 - (void)longPress:(UILongPressGestureRecognizer*)gesture {
if ( gesture.state == UIGestureRecognizerStateEnded ) {
     NSLog(@"Long Press");

 //do something
   }
 }
