Menu
I have a problem that i can't fix.
Keyboard doesn't show on input.focus() on IOS
searchMobileToggle.addEventListener('click', function() {
setTimeout(function(){
searchField.focus();
}, 300);
});
I've been looking for a solution with no result, i know this is a frequently unsolved question but i see NIKE (https://m.nike.com/fr/fr_fr/) and FOODSPRING (https://www.foodspring.fr/) doing it on mobile.
So i'm wondering how do they do ?

None of the other answers worked for me. I ended up looking into the Nike javascript code and this is what I came up with as a reusable function:
function focusAndOpenKeyboard(el, timeout) {
if(!timeout) {
timeout = 100;
}
if(el) {
// Align temp input element approximately where the input element is
// so the cursor doesn't jump around
var __tempEl__ = document.createElement('input');
__tempEl__.style.position = 'absolute';
__tempEl__.style.top = (el.offsetTop + 7) + 'px';
__tempEl__.style.left = el.offsetLeft + 'px';
__tempEl__.style.height = 0;
__tempEl__.style.opacity = 0;
// Put this temp element as a child of the page <body> and focus on it
document.body.appendChild(__tempEl__);
__tempEl__.focus();
// The keyboard is open. Now do a delayed focus on the target element
setTimeout(function() {
el.focus();
el.click();
// Remove the temp element
document.body.removeChild(__tempEl__);
}, timeout);
}
}
// Usage example
var myElement = document.getElementById('my-element');
var modalFadeInDuration = 300;
focusAndOpenKeyboard(myElement, modalFadeInDuration); // or without the second argument
Note that this is definitely a hacky solution, but the fact that Apple hasn't fixed this in so long justifies it.
