Since the new multitasking features arrived with iOS 9 for the iPad, the times were exciting.
Many new use cases for iPad arrived while running two apps side-by-side.
But an error inside webview seems to find no attention, because it does not occur with Safari.
1. You run an app, Slide Over from right and choose a third-party browser like Chrome or Mercury.
2. Navigate to an website in chrome that uses a HTML select input field. Touch that html select box.
3. The items you can select appear inside a dialog with full screen size for chrome inside Slide Over.
4. If you select an item in the list, a blank screen is shown and you are stuck inside.
The only option is to hide the Slide Over and run the chrome app from app switcher.
Then you can see the problematic select dialog in his empty state.
This error occurs since the release iOS 9 in september 2015
and is not fixed with the current version 9.2.1 of iOS. It still exists with iOS 9.3 beta 2.
Every third-party browser or app that uses UIWebView, WKWebView or SFViewController runs into that problem with HTML <select> input fields.
This happens inside Split View 1/3 width and Slide Over.
I have opened a bug report in december 2015 like many others before.
The problem is discussed in Apple Developer Forum.
Finally I hope apple can fix it soon. Anyone else experienced this bug with a third-party browser on an website?
