<input type="number"/> is not showing a number keypad on iOS
html, ios
Solution
You need to specify the pattern:
<input type="number" pattern="\d*"/>
As a `number` can be negative or with floating point, so the - and . and , should be available in the keyboard, unless you specify a digits only pattern.
Problem
According to Apple's documentation when I setup an input element with a type of `number` I should get a number keypad. ``` <input type="number"/> ``` `number`: A text field for specifying a number. Brings up a number pad keyboard in iOS 3.1 and later. Looks damn near impossible to mess up. However, when I view this simple fiddle on my iPhone or the simulator (both iOS6) the number keypad does not appear, and I get the standard alphabetic keyboard instead. http://jsfiddle.net/Cy4aC/3/ What on earth could I possibly have messed up here?
