Backspace events get lost in Android browsers #252

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
I type something in console. When I press "Backspace" (white left arrow with a 
cross on it), it doesn't delete characters.

This page http://javascript.info/tutorial/keyboard-events#test-stand-test-stand 
allows to test keyboard input in JavaScript. Android browser shows that it 
sends the same event (keyCode=8 which=8 charCode=0 char=) as desktop browsers 
do. So my first guess that it is the wrong code was wrong.

I tried this with both default browser in Android, and with Chrome in Android, 
and they both exhibit the same problem.

This could also be tested using the Chrome virtual keyboard:
