Mobile 5 IE Issue

A

aolson

Hello,

We have built a web application to run on a handheld Windows Mobile
2003 device. We recently purchased some new handhelds running
Windows
Mobile 5.


The issue we are having with Mobile 5 is, when a user is scanning
product and they have a single text box (or multiple objects) on the
screen, if they bump the screen at all it moves focus away from the
text box and the scan will not work.


When we were using 2003 if the screen got bumped, the text box would
maintain focus even though the screen was bumped.


How do we get this functionality back in Mobile 5 so that if the
screen is tapped the text box, button, etc that has focus does not
loose focus?


Thanks.

There's not going to be an option like "ignore screen taps". I think you're
going to have to look for the solution in your page code. JavaScript,
maybe, that could check for a loss of focus before a control was properly
filled-in. I'm not a JavaScript expert, though. The browser is just
mimicking what the desktop browser does...
