I encountered this “behavior” tonight.

In the Test Center, it appears one can use more than one method to clear a Text Area:

$(‘#m1-FileName-TextAreaName’).val(‘ ‘);
$(‘#m1-FileName-TextAreaName’).text(‘ ‘);

If you compile the .text(‘ ‘) method, it will not work under iOS 5. So, Test Center is not, in this sense, representative of iOS.

I created a simple example that uses a textarea with 2 buttons that respectively run the val() and text() functions. In my webapp testcase and my native app testcase the textarea is cleared when executed on iphone 4s with iOS5.

Here is link to my webapp example:

Thanks for looking into this. I am using a 3GS w/ iOS 5. Maybe this was fixed in the 5.1.1 drop? I’ll take a look at the .modi and web app…

What is the widget who’s text is being cleared? Is it a text-area, input-field, password….
In my little test I used a text-area widget to clear.

I’m using a textarea.

Using your webapp, in Firefox (Windows7) and Safari (iphone), the text() method only works once. The val() works repeatedly.
