           Summary: iPhone: Forms that remove text lock up keyboard
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 420+
          Platform: Other
               URL: http://demos.mootools.net/Element.Event
        OS/Version: Other
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Minor
          Priority: P3
         Component: Forms
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
        ReportedBy: neil.here at gmail.com


I am sorry if this is not the place to post bugs with the iPhone's Safari
browser, but I figured since it ran WebKit it wouldn't hurt (and to make sure
I'm not going crazy).

If you are using a computer browser and you go to a page such as
http://demos.mootools.net/Element.Event and you type in "hello" (minus the
quotes of course) it will remove the text and do it's action as intended.
However, if you visit the site on your iPhone when you type in "hello" and then
press space (you really shouldn't have to type a space but that is fine) it
removes the text from the box, and does it's little action (you probably will
have to scroll out before you do this to notice the effect).

That's great and all, but if you try to type anything, WITHOUT taking focus out
of the text box (ie: clicking Done) you can't type anything. It just won't
accept any input via the keyboard.

I am pretty sure (but cannot confirm) that there is a problem with the
javascript code that sets the text box value to nothing, here the possible
problem causing code that has iPhone Safari has a problem with
txt.value = ''
please make note that the '' are 2 single quotes ( ' ) that look like a full
quote ( " )

I'm not sure if this is a WebKit problem or if this is an iPhone problem.
Should I have sent this to Apple via it's feedback form for iPhone?
