Issue typing post on a phone
Feedback
The keyboard sometimes disappears and then the whole message by accident gets erased. I've not had this happen anywhere else.
hey Kelsey ... just to add.. I use Chrome on my samsung and the same happens there too...
in the midst of typing the keyboard dissappears, so you have to tap on the post again and again till the keyboard appears.
Backspace deletes everything you have typed. sometimes when you type for example..omg... it appears twice when spacebar hit... omgomg.
When you click on the expiry date, previously used date appear in xx/xx/xxxx format, so you have to then type eg 12 and then the calendar will appear.
nemosays Exactly as Nemosays pointed it out.
It's really weird that this happens as there really should be no reason to.
Thanks nemosays and Rockman - unfortunately I don't have an Android device to test it on which makes it a little difficult to debug
The text inboxes use something called DraftJS under the bonnet but it's been customised quite a bit to add emojis and mentions in. Could you please try the text input on this page: https://facebook.github.io/draft-js/ and let me know if it has the same issues on your devices?
Hopefully it'll help me work out if it's the underlying software that's the issue or one of the extensions.
Thanks a lot
nemosays Thanks a lot!
So that tells me the keyboard problem is an underlying issue in the software. This is more a note to myself (as the link contains really geeky stuff) but Facebook (who made the comment software) are aware of the issue, have created a fix and will update the software to work properly. https://github.com/facebook/draft-js/pull/907
Hopefully that'll happen in the next week or so and then I'll revisit whether or not it's fixed the other bugs too
