This nearly completely breaks the select ui on iOS. It should do some kind of feature detection so that it can disable itself on browsers that have alternate ui's for controls like this.
For example, this converts a select menu to an input field. On iOS the keyboard comes up instead of the select control.
- gpambrozio 15y agoDidn't test on the iphone but on the ipad if you expand one control and then click on another it will keep both expanded. Click on a third and now you'll have 3 expanded. Looks weird. Also, +1 to try to replicate the native look, maybe just adding a down arrow. Good job otherwise.
- powrtoch 15y agoThis just seems like a matter of preference to me. It works on iOS pretty much just like it works on a desktop. It may be that some iOS users would prefer the native UI, but you could say the same for some desktop users (particularly keyboard-wary ones). I certainly wouldn't call anything "broken".
- philfreo 15y agoIt's broken. When I tapped it the element the dropdown part of it didn't come up on the screen. The only way to scroll inside it is to do the 2 finger scroll, which 90% of users wouldn't know how to do (since normally you do a 1 finger). On the desktop the element still feels like a <select>. On the iPhone it feels nothing at all like a <select>
- richbradshaw 15y agoI believe that on iOS5, the 2 finger scroll has been removed and replaced with a 1 finger one.
