I've found that form inputs are clearing themselves on focus when building for iOS, but I do not have this problem in the browser. Example:



let PageBody = (
<div>
<h1>Form</h1>
<br />
<form>
<p>Input: <input type="text" maxLength="100" name="someData" id="someData" /></p>
<p><input type="button" id="SaveButton" name="SaveButton" value="Save" /></p>
</form>
</div>
);


I believe this is happening at the JavaScript layer, because adding an empty onFocus="" resolves the issue, preserving the value that was in the input.



Any thoughts on where this coming from or next steps in debugging?



Edit:



I removed the onFocus="" to continue tinkering and (frustratingly) I can no longer reproduce the issue.

    Please provide a more complete example, with yours onChange, onFocus .etc events. Or your input is totally uncontrolled ?

  • That is the strange part, I have no event listeners on that field.

    then, what is its purpose ? what do you want to perform with ? have you read differences between controlled and uncontrolled inputs from React doc ?
