Once focus is on the input, the keydown, keyup, and keypress events will trigger text to be added to the three bottom lines. This works in the browser and in the HTML5 launcher, but it does not work on the device (er, emulator).

they are not supported yes w/ the OSK, but you can still make it work by trapping the 'input' event:

document.querySelector("input").addEventListener('input', function(e) { console.log(e.target.value); });

Thanks. That may be the work-around I need to make my original work-around work.

Is there a bug about this I should be watching?

Thanks,
Robert
