I am facing this issue specifically when the user makes following set of actions:
If a user taps on an Input field the keyboard pops up (expected and
fine behavior). However, if a user taps directly to another input
field, without tapping anywhere else keyboard gets hidden (unexpected
and buggy behavior). For me to be able to make keyboard pop again, I
have to tap outside on any non-input field and tap on input field
again.
Not sure if it is related but from looking at other issues, this issue is being faced on Google Chrome (Surface 7). It works fine for Edge browser but I want something that works for Chrome.

In one of my PCs when I use inspect tool in chrome, I can't select some part of a property or a value, so I have to retype all the value again. As many times as I click on the selected text, the caret doesn't go to the place I need and the selected text doesn't deselect.
the following picture shows what I want and what happens.
There is no problem in another PC.
Both are windows 10 64bit and google chrome 62.
Try holding shift or control while clicking. Haven't tried it, but it may work. My guess is that it's simply a UX workflow that DevTools doesn't handle well.
I have a very very weird bug. In Google Chrome everything is OK, only IE has this problem.
I use an AngularJS and ui-select component to create a multiple selects.
In IE, when I click into text input element, I can't type anything and even placeholder is not removed.
But when I click to URL address bar or click somewhere into DOM in Developer Tools (after hitting F12) first and then I click into that input, it normally works and I can write into input to filter options.
I tried a lot of with focus/blur, but nothing helps me. Please, did someone have similar problem?

This is a strange bug that occurs on the iPhone 5 when navigating back to a previous page.
Here's the steps to reproduce the bug on an iPhone 5:
Select a menu option that directs to a new page
From the new page press the browser back button
Try and navigate to the same page again using the same menu
An example page to try this on is here. On this page, select 'Javascript Tutorials' from the first menu on the page. Then follow steps above...
In my situation there is no go button to follow the link (like the second menu on the example page). The option is followed when clicked. The problem with this is that because the page you returned from is selected in the menu, you are unable to navigate to it. You cant re-select it.
My question: Is this a known iOS 7 bug? And is there a solution? My search has come up empty so far.
My JS code selects the first option when the menu is generated on page load. And as said, this bug only occurs on the iPhone.
This is not an iOS 7/iPhone 5 bug.
I can recreate it in Chrome on Windows 7.
As you said,
"because the page you returned from is selected in the menu,
you are unable to navigate to it"
The menu is pre-selected because of autocomplete behavior
When you press browser "back" in step 2 (versus page refresh), browser remembers the state you left the select in
https://stackoverflow.com/a/2699400/1175496
When you re-select an option that is already selected
You haven't changed anything; so the change event doesn't fire
Scripts listening for that event (as with the onChange attribute in your example) won't send you to the page
I fix this by putting autocomplete="off" attribute on the form element containing your select;
this prevents number 1, which prevents number 2.
Here is the scenario: whenever I submit a form on Google Chrome, then try to refresh the page, I get prompted by the browser to confirm the re-submition, due to data loss et cetera, as usual. The annoying part is that the confirmation prompt doesn't get the focus (it used to do it).
This is a common task I believe many programmers do:
CTRL+S on code editor;
ALT+TAB to Google Chrome and
CTRL+R (or F5) to refresh the page.
RETURN or SPACE to confirm the re-submition.
The problem is at the 4th step: once the confirmation prompt doesn't get the focus, I have to mouse click the "OK" button.
It's not a big deal, but it really becomes a pain when you have to test multiple times a form submition.
My Chrome version is: 27.0.1453.94 m
Thanks in advance.
I noticed the same behavior in Chrome 27.0.1453.94 m, it's very annoying when developing webpages. The problem persists in version 27.0.1453.110 m.
I've tried 29.0.1529.3 canary, it's refresh behavior is back to normal in that version.
Today i noticed that this behaviour is fixed :-)
Current version: 28.0.1500.71 m
this is insanely annoying problem:
AS3 full screen application based on ADOBE FLEX 4, text field. User types something in text field, and then starts clicking backspace many many times to remove what he just wrote, and for some reason, instead of removing characters from text field it tells browser to GO BACK and user navigates away. Why?! Please, please help, this is so terrible. My users are losing important unsaved this is data while using my application!
i am using safari browser
PLEASE HELP.
Wow, this is terrible, I am so irritated, it happens every single time
It is possible that the focus is lost from your text field when hitting the backspace multiple times (check if you are firing some events on the text field that may cause this), which causes the main window to take focus and trigger 'Back' on the browser.
The root of the problem is that the browser carries out keyboard shortcuts REGARDLESS of the flash app having the focus or not. From what I heard this problem does not exist on Safari's for Mac, only Safari for Windows.
I would check to see what browser you are in and then create a popup saying you this app does NOT work on Safari browser ON windows.
Scratching head*
Well maybe if HAD to solve this, I would use the ExternalInterface to interact with Safari or javascript to PREVENT the history back button from getting applied. So it won't go back to an old page. That is what I would look into.
