Juliusz's thoughts: Height of tabs not taken into account? Too many things going on at the same time (keyboard not yet open so doesn't take into account its height properly)?

This is happening because iOS Safari doesn't fire the "focus" event the first time CE is focused (or something prevents the propagation of the event). Might be somewhat related to the bug about the cursor being moved to the beginning of CE (bug 66697).

ve.ce.Surface.prototype.onFocusChange seems to be stopping the propagation of "focus" event when CE is focused for the first time. Making ve.ce.Surface.prototype.onFocusChange a noop fixes this bug (but is obviously not the right solution).

More precisely it's ve.ce.Surface.prototype.onDocumentFocus.

Digging deeper into the rabbit hole...

  • Commenting out "this.emit( 'select', this.selection && this.selection.clone() );" in ve.dm.Surface.prototype.setSelection also fixes the bug. It also seems to be fixing bug 66697.
  • Making ve.ce.Surface.prototype.onModelSelect a noop also seems to fix both bugs.
  • Commenting out "this.showSelection( selection );" ve.ce.Surface.prototype.onModelSelect seems to fix both bugs too.

I suspect we're either doing something weird that iOS Safari doesn't like or perhaps there is a bug in Rangy.

This is weird. I tried following the call stack deeper to see what exactly causes the problem, but I'm stuck in ve.ce.Surface.prototype.showSelection.

It seems I have to comment out:

if ( this.getElementDocument().activeElement !== documentElement ) {

		documentElement.focus();

}

plus at least _one_ (either or both) of the following:

		rangyRange.setStart( selection.start.node, selection.start.offset );
		rangySel.setSingleRange( rangyRange );

I'm wondering if iOS Safari has some weird bug where it drops events when something tries to modify the same DOM node too many times.

Still not working for me.I tried on this page: http://en.m.wikipedia.beta.wmflabs.org/wiki/21staugustchrome

But it's reproducible for any page.

The issue got resolved for the aforementioned steps , but still it is occurring for the following case

1.Open the page.
2.Tap on an existing link from the page.
3.Open the link inspector when the context menu for it appears.
4.Just close the link inspector tapping on the "Done" button.
5.Now tap anywhere in the CE.

You will see the toolbar did not float this time.

It happens after opening and closing citation dialogs as well

Also , as Roan specified in https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68828

After coming to CE and tapping somewhere , the scrolling to the top of the page does not work,which might be related to this issue.So we are keeping both the issues in same place for now and closing the other one.

Seems to work for me now. Tested on Beta Cluster using iOS Safari 8.0 on an iPad.
