Re: Initial example of date picker using a menu button pattern

When I am using an iOS device I open the date picker using the button. I select a date by tapping on it and focus goes back to the text field. This results in the soft keyboard appearing. As I am not typing a date I have no need for the keyboard so it should not appear.

Regards,
James

Hi,
I’m not clear on what the problem is.

Can you explain the conflict?

Thanks,
Bryan

Deque’s example does not result in the keyboard appearing on iOS so IMO this would be ok.
The Whatsock example does result in the keyboard appearing so IMO is not acceptable.

Link to datepicker menu button example:
https://raw.githack.com/w3c/aria-practices/issue34-date-picker-examples/examples/datepicker/datepicker-menubutton.html


Issues:

  1.  Other menu button date pickers move focus to the textbox instead of the button when a date is picked, we still want to stick with focus returning to the button?
  2.  Other examples:
Deque: https://dequeuniversity.com/library/aria/date-pickers/sf-date-picker
