Topic: Navbar dropdown on older iOS versions?

jonas_thorell premium asked 1 year ago


Hm, just wondering if anyone knows if there's anything in the combination of webkit/safari/iOS and the navbar dropdown classes that makes the dropdowns not work on older versions of iOS, specifically 10.3 (since that what I have available to test on as far as older devices go).

I can see the menu, but nothing happens when I click on it.

The same code works perfectly fine in Chrome and Edge on Windows 10, in Safari on my iPhone (16.5.1 on an iPhone 8). Also works perfectly fine on a newer iPad (16.something).

Yes, I realize iOS 10 is quite old but whenever possible I try to make things work as best as I can on older devices (within reason...I will not try to make it work on the version of Internet Explorer that was bundled with Win95 ;-))

I don't really think there is anything wrong with my code that goes along with the classes since I get the same result if using just the navbar example-code on a testpage.

I can't be sure but CSS is evolving language so is JS. Older browsers do not support newer features.

You can use https://caniuse.com/ to see what exactly is a problem.

But if you want to ensure support for older browsers, you must do that custom. The documentation states that we support only a few newest versions of modern browsers.
