Holding down on text in iOS does not bring up the

问题:

I am talking about one of these Dialog boxes that pop up: http://jquerymobile.com/test/docs/pages/page-dialogs.html

(short url for mobile http://bit.ly/KhCGVD)

Click 'Open Dialog' -- on that dialog box, nothing is copy-able in iOS without unless 'data-ajax="false"' is used in the link. (works fine on Android)

Putting '-webkit-user-select: auto!important;' (or 'text' instead of 'auto') does nothing.

Adding the javascript 'document.documentElement.style.webkitTouchCallout = "auto";' does nothing.

I am desperate to make this work as I have built an entire thing around the assumption that copy would work on it in iOS as well as android, but didn't test in iOS until it was finished :(.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, Thanks.

edit: tested on 4.3.5 -- 4.3.2 -- iOS 5.1 -- not working

I'm afraid i can't provide simple answer to your question (like adding something in config or init), but i hope current solution will be sufficient.

Problem

Problem lies quite deep in the code of this framework. First of all we have a jquery.mobile.dialog.js file in which we have a line:

    $el.bind( "vclick submit", function( event ) {
               // code
            })

As you can see here we are adding a binding vclick to the $el - whole dialog box container.

Event vclick on it's own is generated by jQuery Mobile in vmouse.js and after digging there i managed to detect where actual problem arises:

    $( this ).bind( realType, dummyMouseHandler );

This line is required to make event work in some browsers, namely Opera Mini (as described in commented text above this line).

Solution

So, here is one of the solutions, open file jquery.mobile.vmouse.js and comment out line

    $( this ).bind( realType, dummyMouseHandler );

I've tested it on an iPad and copy functionality is available after that tiny patch.
