There is this property of input elements (e.g. multilineinput) that whenever you click in the input to start writing some text, the screen zooms in and focuses on the input. I do not want this to happen, i.e. I want the screen to keep the same size as before, since the user would now need to zoom out to see the complete screen again. try this example in mobile:
is there any workaround to this behavior? thanks
Add this to your page header

hey @jared.gibb thanks for the reply
I copied and pasted the html you sent, but the problem seems to persist, at least in my iphone 5se
Bummer.
As a point of reference, when this is shown in a webview in a mobile app, the screen doesn’t pinch. But it could be a setting on the webviewer in the app wrapper. I’ll get back to you on that!
Have you tried checking the box in settings > prevent zoom? This should negate that zoom in on input feature.
@lantzgould wow it does work. many thanks
