Native won't trigger on iOS 5/6

[steviep]

SelectBoxIt looks pretty much perfect for what i need, and triggering the native mode on mobile devices is a feature I've been looking for for ages.

However for some reason it isn't triggering properly for me on my iPad (iOS5) or iPhone (iOS6). It actually seems to attempt to trigger the native select box options, but then it quickly disappears and shows the desktop styled list of options. I've tried disabling all other plugins on the site, no luck. One thing that's worth noting is I am running jQuery in no conflict mode on this site as it needs to work with Prototype, would that affect it?

Tried forcing native through the options, but still no luck, any ideas? Any help appreciated.

@steviep I have tested SelectBoxIt on both devices (iPad and iPhone) and operating systems (iOS5 and iOS6) that you mention above via emulators, and for me, it seems to correctly use the native interface. Would you be able to show me a public url or a jsfiddle/jsbin that mimics your current setup so that I could troubleshoot?

Also, I don't believe using Prototype should be an issue, as long as you are not overwriting window.jQuery

I'm closing this issue for now, but let me know if you are still having trouble!

@steviep Try updating SelectBoxIt to the latest code. This should fix your issue hopefully =)

Hey Greg, sorry for the late reply. I'll take a copy of the new code and see how I get on, but I actually assumed that it was probably more a specific issue with the setup of my site, rather than a bug as I also tested your examples page on both devices and they all worked correctly. Instead I moved over to using the native controls styled with CSS for now, not perfect but will do! Thanks for spending time to look into it though.

@steviep Another person reported an issue with the way SelectBoxIt was handling mobile devices, so I took a look at the code, and found a bug that could affect your page. Let me know!

Found the exact same issue as mentioned above. I did grab the latest code link you provided, but it's still "flashing" up the native control on iPad and then quickly switching to my pages css styling.

Any updates?

@squaremdesign Do you have a public url I could look at?

Sent you email. Thanks!

I'm using SelectBoxIt for the first time with the latest version of the script (as of yesterday) and I'm not getting anything at all on mobile devices (testing on iPad and iPhone). When I click the select box neither the custom or the native controls come up! I can send you a live link but I don't want to share it publicly so can you please email me?

@beneklisefski Just emailed you.
