Autocomplete popup opens a second time on Android with FireFox version 99
Hi -
Wanted to report a new issue found with the autocomplete control. When an item is selected on Android with FireFox version 99 where the virtual keyboard is used for the search the popup shows a second time.
Thanks
Thanks for the report. Is this an issue with jQuery UI or its Download Builder?
jQuery UI autocomplete only with FF version 99 or higher on Android. I can reproduce using the autocomplete demo site. It happens in the latest version and also the previous (1.12.1, 1.13.1). I have it reproducing on an Android VM using FF as well.
I think it is just something introduced with FF on Android as I do not see it using any other browsers (does not happen on Chrome, iOS, or desktop).
OK. jQuery UI issues should be reported at https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui/issues, not here; let me move this issue there.
Since the issue is already in 1.12, given limited team resources it's not likely to be fixed by the UI team; see the project status at https://blog.jqueryui.com/2021/10/jquery-maintainers-update-and-transition-jquery-ui-as-part-of-overall-modernization-efforts/. PRs are welcome if they're not too complex.
Thanks. This appears to be introduced by some behavior change in FF on Android. The impact is pretty significant on our project. I am able to debug so will see if I can figure out what is going on there.
Strange, just appears that the change event does not fire until after the second popup is dismissed. Not sure how to resolve.
