Menu
I was testing out the HTML5 input type "number" with my Android phone. Whilst doing this I noticed that when the soft keyboard is active on a number input type the next button doesn't appear to tab between inputs.
Now I assume it should tab between inputs but I can't find any definite wording that says this is the case.
I am currently using Android 4.1.1 with the stock browser. I have also tried in Chrome with the same results.
I have a sample page here : http://jsfiddle.net/axECg/ and here is the code for it:
<html>
<head>
<title></title>
</head>
<body>
<form id="myForm">
Number 1<input type="number" id="numA" name="numA" /><br />
Number 2<input type="number" id="numB" name="numB" />
</form>
</body>
</html>
Am I doing something wrong? Or just expecting a bit too much in regards to HTML5 + Android at the moment?
Thanks

This does appear to be a limitation of Chrome/Android browser. An issue has been logged. I've tested the example (and tried some modifications) on two devices with multiple browsers.
Nexus 7 4.2.1 and Samsung S3 4.1.1
I've also tested input types: email, text, tel. In Chrome they either show a non-functional 'Next' button or no 'Next' button. FF Mobile has a working 'Next' button for all cases.
