Re: Ignore HTML elements in mobile devices

Thank you guys. 

I have tried to set tabindex to -1 and 0, but the VoiceOver in IPad (mini) keep reading the node when I touch, it can be an issue of VoiceOver with Safari to IPad. I will try to test in other kinds of devices.

Thanks
Rodrigo

Sometimes we need to ignore element used just to style the page, so I need something similar tabindex=“0” but for touch events.
