Geocomplete isnt working in Firefox Android #103

Closed maverickr77 closed 10 years ago

maverickr77 commented 10 years ago

I just tested the examples on Firefox Android (Jelly Bean) and the Autocomplete Suggestion list doesn't come up correctly.

http://ubilabs.github.io/geocomplete/examples/simple.html

E.g. if I'm searching for Boston, MA the suggestion list doesn't come up until I type "Boston,"

It does work in the desktop version of Firefox though. Also works other android browsers (Native Android, Chrome, Opera).

Is this a known issue??

I'm attaching some screenshots to illustrate this. These were taken on Firefox (Android) on my Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1

We are using geocomplete on our website (which has been great and extremely stable for the most part) but of late we've received several complaints from users about this issue on Firefox. I would greatly appreciate if the development team would take a look and comment on this issue.

Thanks in advance for your time and help.

Firefox Android was not on the list of supported browsers. See: https://developers.google.com/maps/faq#browsersupport

Thanks for your feedback and the link. I wasn't aware that they didn't officially support it on FF Android so I logged a bug with Google. https://code.google.com/p/gmaps-api-issues/issues/detail?id=6965

They have accepted it but haven't provided a timeline on when they would fix this.
