Knockout click binding not working in iPad












1















I have a simple button like this:



<button data-bind="click: login" type="button" class="btn btn-lg btn-primary">Log in</button>


ko.applyBindings({
login: (viewModel, event) => {
// this gets never called
};
});


The click event is working fine in all devices I have tested it. Except iPad 9.3.5 (iPad mini)



Looking for answers I found the following work around: https://makandracards.com/makandra/34753-how-to-fix-ipad-does-not-trigger-click-event-on-some-elements



It did not work for me. Anyway idea of how to fix this?



Note: the jQuery click event is not working either.

          You are using arrow functions, which according to caniuse.com is supported on iOS Safari from version 10 onwards. You can change your code to the following:



          ko.applyBindings({
          login: function(viewModel, event){
          // this gets never called
          };
          });


          or if your code uses more of the ES6 features, you can consider transpiling your code, e.g. using babel, or similar tools.

          • I have changed the arrow function and it is still not working. I will try with babel in case something else is interfering.
