On-screen keyboard does not appear on iPad, when accessing console on main site

So, I can see Linux booting on my iPad, but cannot interact with it.

You have to click on the small field with the content "clipb." This is the only way I know to open the keyboard. If someone knows a better solution, I am open for suggestions. Maybe you can pretend to open a hidden text field when you click on the terminal.

Why not to use textarea-based terminal? i.e. not canvas-based? Like jslinux have.

As far as I know jslinux uses a

object and not a textarea. This is not editable as well. But he has also a textbox next to the terminal which is the equivalent of my "clipb.". At the moment I cannot load jsLinux to test. My ipad reloads the page all the time. To get rid of the canvas object is on my TODO list.

I switched to a table based tty. I guess no difference :)

Seamlessly integrated with mobile touch keyboards. Additionaly, virtual keyboards could be launched when necessary.

It will be nice if you explore how they implement it.

Or a better alternative open source one (HTERM) : https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/platform/assets/+/95f6a2c7a984b1c09b7d66c24794ce2057144e86/chromeapps/hterm/doc/faq.txt

Already used into our iOS app

Or perhaps just include this virtual keyboard : http://mottie.github.io/Keyboard/docs/mobile.html
